bought some Swai today. Had never heard of it but bought a pound ($3.99) and it appears to be a very basic white fish I felt like Swai was maybe a notch better than Tilapia. I'd sooner have Cod or Scrod or Halibut but the better fishies aren't really in my budget anymore. Almost anything pan fried in Panko is good!
Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...

Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

Tonight the po' folk at my home went to Fresh 'n Easy (Tesco, UK) and purchased Choice filet to serve grilled over plain risotto. The grilled meat was served with a Gorgonzola compound butter which melted on the meat as it was served.

Flounder is about as high as I can afford to go on the Fish Scale these days. When I was young, fish was the cheapest meat that you could buy. How is that for an indication of how the oceans are being exploited, fished out and destroyed?

Thinking about fish tomorrow for dinner. Went to the farmer's market this morning: too expensive.
Cod comes frozen. My fish needs to be white, fresh and wild. Therefore, my only choices are halibut, sea bass, or petrale.
Salmon is too full-flavored for me.

' Salmon is too full-flavored for me. Mmmm... Salmon!! Morning, noon and night! Delish! If you want to kill its delicious taste, just dribble a little sesame oil over it before serving it. If you want to worry about fish, you should be thinking about heavy metals, radioactive cesium, and Gulf of Mexico poisonous chemicals!

I like to grill my salmon , brushing it with peanut oil, a few drops of sesame oil, a little mandarin orange juice, soy sauce, garlic and ginger. I serve it with pineapple fried rice, and grilled baby bok choy. Almond/coconut tfu for dessert!

About 20 (maybe 25 yrs ago?)McDonald's (Golden Arches)exclusively use cod in their fish sandwiches. What changed? Cod was expensive,so they switched to a less expensive white fish.
Years ago as a freshman in college, an erstwhile freshman, who was British, always had tuna subs whenever we (the collective went out on weekends). I asked him one day, why he always orders tuna and don't they have tuna in England? He answered, Of course, but it's a lower class fish. I don't think that I'll ever forget that.
