or cooking firmer types of fish, e.g.
cod and salmon.
Also for cooking fish in sauce or stock.
Duration
The cooking duration depends on the
thickn
ess and the texture of the fish,
and not on the weight. The thicker the
fish, the longer the cooking duration. A
3 cm thick piece of fish weighing 500 g
will take longer to cook than a 2 cm
thick piece of fish weighing 500 g.
The longer fish cooks, the firmer its
flesh will become. Use the cooking
dur
ations given in the chart. If you find
that the fish is not cooked sufficiently
only cook it for a few minutes more.
When cooking fish in sauce or stock,
we r
ecommend that you increase the
cooking duration quoted by a few
minutes.
Tips
– Adding herbs and spices, such as
dill, will help bring out the full flavour
of the fish.
– Cook large fish in the swimming
positio
n. To help maintain the shape
of the fish, place a small cup or
similar upside down in the cooking
container, and arrange the fish
bellyside down over the cup.
– You can use any fish scraps, e.g. fish
heads, bones, tails etc t
o make a fish
stock. Place the fish scraps together
with some mixed vegetables in a
solid cooking container and add cold
water. Cook at 100 °C for 60 to 90
minutes. The longer the cooking
duration, the stronger the stock.
– Blue fish is fish which is co
oked in
water and vinegar. It is important not
to damage the skin of the fish. This
method is suitable for cooking carp,
trout, tench, eel and salmon. (Follow
recipe instructions for the ratio of
water to vinegar).
