James Peterson’s Baked Fish Fillets with Butter and Sherry
A 5-ingredient, 20-minute technique to make any white fish shine — bonus: it makes its own buttery, boozy sauce, without deglazing or reducing. So go to your local fishmonger or sign up for a CSF. Don’t blindly buy halibut or sea bass or whatever a recipe calls for — ask your trusty fishperson what’s in […]
Thai Fish & Veggie Stew
This Thai Fish & Veggie Stew is a vibrant, aromatic dish that brings a burst of fresh flavours right to your table. It’s light yet comforting, with tender fish and prawns simmered in a fragrant coconut broth that’s balanced by the zing of lime, the heat of green curry, and a hit of umami […]
Pesto Glazed Corvina Sea Bass
An easy but really good fish recipe can be hard to find. This one can be done in a matter of minutes but is fancy enough for guests. You can use a jar of pesto you have in the fridge, but of course homemade pesto is always the best. You can garnish with a […]
Mimi’s Italian Fish Stew
My grandmother, MiMi, passed down some lovely Italian recipes that my family still enjoys today like this simple, delicious and classic fish stew — aka Mimi’s Italian Fish Stew! Over the years, I’ve made my own personal touches to the recipe, but its essence is still captured in each bowl of this easy-to-make soup. It’s […]
Cioppino
Cioppino is a hearty seafood and tomato stew first invented in San Francisco by Italian fishermen. Today, Cioppino is made in many different ways across the country. In many recipes, the seafood is all just added to the pot to simmer with the stew, but in the recipe, the seafood is individually seared so […]
Fish Curry
This fragrant tomato-and-coconut curry with pieces of flaky white fish is a staple at chef Meherwan Irani’s dinner table. At home, he likes to make double or triple batches of the coconut milk curry (see his recipe for All-Purpose Coconut Curry here) and freeze it in two-cup portions. Then, when he’s ready for dinner, all […]
Peruvian Seafood Chowder
This nourishing bowl of seafood simmered in a base of pureed corn, evaporated milk, squash, and potatoes pulls inspiration from the beloved Peruvian chupe. Right before turning off the heat, gently stir in egg yolks for a satisfying soup with big flavor.
Fish Cakes with Cucumber Yogurt (‘Fischküchle mit Gurkenjoghurt’)
I would choose fish cakes over meatballs at any occasion. They are light, delicate, and incredibly tender. Meat, fish, grain, and vegetable patties are insanely popular across German cuisine. It’s said that the American hamburger was invented by putting German meatballs on a slice of bread.
Salt and Pepper Fish
Traditionally, the fish for this classic Chinese dish is battered and deep-fried. In our version, the fish is pan-seared in hot oil, but still gets plenty of texture and flavor from ginger, caramelized scallions, and lots of freshly ground black pepper. When you’re cooking the fish, be sure to let it get golden brown on […]
Chipotle Fish Tacos with Peach Salsa
This recipe for Grilled Chipotle Fish Tacos with Peach Salsa is full of delicious summertime flavor. Sweet and tangy peaches complement the spicy, smoky fish. Lime brightens it to perfection. The grilled fish is marinated in a flavorful mixture of smoky chipotles, garlic, cumin and coriander giving it satisfying depth and heat, marrying well with […]
Fish Soup with Scallops, Tomato, and Bay
I’m lucky to live on the Atlantic shore where I can get morning-caught fish on my plate for lunch or dinner. Today, it made its way into this flavourful and aromatic soup, which is best enjoyed fresh off the stove but also very tasty the next day. Serve with croutons, if you like. Enjoy!
