Fish

I have always liked fish, it does not matter how it's cooked really, I like eating fish (except for catfish, that was not a good experience). My sister on the other hand was never a big fan of fish, and for a quite weird reason. She did not like the smell of cooking the fish. Actually, she does not like the smell of cooking, period. Anyway, I have brought some salmon fillets home, because I love salmon and it's very easy to make. My sister was a bit annoyed that she had to inhale the smell of fish, but she seemed to be ok with it after she had a few bites. It turns out that my sister does like eating fish after all. She really like salmon that I cook (I fry it in skillet with some pepper olive oil and red wine). There is nothing special to my recipe, but she really likes it. I do have to admit that the fillets that I bought are very very good.

So, we were sitting last weekend at home, I cooked some fish and she was eating it with some rice and she tells me: "I need to eat fish at least 3 times a week. It's very good for you" Hmm, it was very interesting that she said that it was "very good for you" because I was thinking "why does she think that cooking fish for her 3 times a week is all that good for me, I wonder" Anyway, I know what she meant, I agree with her, that fish is very good and usually is much leaner that beef or pork or any other meat. This weekend I am going to cook halibut and need to buy some more salmon. I have been into cooking lately. I don't make anything extravagant, but I cook a few times a week, I would say that is pretty regular. I cook much more here than I did in the states. I am kind of enjoying it. But I am not sure that I can cook fish 3 times a week, that seems to be a bit excessive if you ask me. I don't mean that it's excessive to eat fish, it just means that I would have to cook some other stuff too, and that means that I would be cooking every single day of the week. I am not quite ready for that. After all, I don't have my hubby or kids to feed, so this really should be the time in my life when I don't cook anything at all. We will have to wait and see if I continue developing my cooking skills :)
