Plus they're a boon to busy families because they cook quickly and can be prepared with many of the same cooking methods used for beef, pork and chicken
If you're in the mood for seafood, you have plenty of choices. There are countless species available today from finned fish to shellfish.
Selecting Fish
You'll find fresh and frozen fish presented in a variety of ways at the grocery store as well as a fish market. You can choose from whole fish to thick steaks to boneless fillets. No matter the type of fish or cut you prefer, it's important to check the freshness before you purchase it. Since the enzymes are accustomed to working in cold water, the fish perishes faster than meat and poultry.
