"fish recipe" news and stories

Before you shriek in horror, "Fish sticks; are they insane?" hear us out. Would Mark Bittman steer you wrong? These are not those old-school frozen fish sticks you find in the grocery store, named after some crusty fisherman with a healthy gray beard. No, mateys, Bittman's fish sticks begin with pollock, halibut, or even catfish that's sliced into narrow "sticks," dredged in bread crumbs, drizzled with butter or oil and then baked to flaky perfection.

One of the easiest ways to prepare fish is also one of the most delicious. Here's how.

I can't remember the last time I had fish. I just don't eat fish, which means I'm probably incredibly unhealthy because I don't get all of the great things into my body that fish provide. I'm not a big seafood lover in general. I'll order chicken before I get fish, though I do love clams and scallops.

When I do eat fish, haddock is my favorite. My mom used to make it when I was a kid, and it was the only type of fish I could stand. I probably haven't had it in 25 years or so, but this recipe for Haddock Marinara from Kristimoo at AllRecipes might make me jump back into the fish world, at least once in a while. If you like your fish plain this might not be for you (it has a lot of stewed tomatoes and mozzarella cheese), but it sounds great.
