Fish diet, What does Tilapia taste like?!
Answers: Im on a strict fish diet and it seems to be really working, the thing is im not very familiar with what fish to eat, im really bored with cod, coley and haddock, so i want to splash out on something a bit more exciting like Tilapia, has anybody had this and could tell me if its nice, also any more great fish ideas, i live in london so i find it quite easy to get most things, basically i place my fish in a pot of sauce on high heat (lid on) and let the steam cook it, is this right for tilapia.
Tilapia is very mild & is great about taking on whatever flavors you want to give it (lemon & dill, blackened Cajun spices, etc.). There's nothing at all wrong with cooking it in a pot with a lid. It's very inexpensive & I think you'd enjoy it.
Blacck!
Tilapia has a mild mild flavor so if you steam it..add some good seasonings you like...or a light sauce..or just a splash of lemon, salt, and pepper!!!
Buy some and eat it... to me tilapia tastes dirty... others disagree, but I learned recently that tilapia and catfish are bred alongside salmon to keep the water clean... you don't want to know how they keep the water clean.
we brought some jamican talipia last summer on a whim because it was cheap in tesco. we had never cooked it before and had no idea what to expect. after a long debate on how to cook it we settled on the barbque as that way if we didnt like it we could chuck on a few burgers. we put it on some flat tin foil with fresh chillies and lime juice then put the tin foil into a sort of bag ( dont wrap but make a bag big enough to allow the fish to steam) sealing in all the juices and chucked it on the barbque for about 20 mins ( do them indervidually) check the fish is cooked before you serve if not just do your foil bag up again and put it on for a little longer.
this was just yummy and we do this when ever we have a barbque and you can even do it in the oven you just dont get the barbque taste but still yummy.
i hate tilapia it's like no taste i would prefer bangus
Um, Tilapia tastes like Mahi to me.
