strange fish question

[joatsaint 2,814]

I've never developed any cravings for any flavors post-op.

But my tastes in foods have changed.

I now love broccoli, cauliflower, and brussel sprouts.

My old fast food favorites just don't taste that good anymore. (happy dance!) :-)

Bass is good. Baked in parchment paper some herbs and veggies. Also seafood. Prawns scallops mussels. You could make chicken paella with seafood added..... Yummy

She put salt, pepper and lemon on it and baked it. It didnt taste fishy at all! Im going to stick with cod for a while and then try a different kind.

I love fish! Salmon is one of my favorites, but I also like flounder. The best thing to do is research how to cook it. Fish shouldn't "smell" like fish.. it really shouldn't smell at all. Smelly fish is old fish. Try to buy fresh caught wild fish, and not farm raised. And really research how to cook it. Most fish is terrible if its overcooked. Salmon shouldn't be cooked all the way through.

Welp, didn't like COD. I think it's all in my head. I just can't. ✋

Cod is a funky type of fish..

Glad you enjoyed the cod! I better there are many other types of fish you'll end up enjoying too! People here have given pretty good suggestions for mild types of fish. I'll just add:

Salmon, imo, is a really good fish and extremely healthy too with so many Omega 3s in it. As someone mentioned above, BE CAREFUL not to overcook it. Overcooked salmon is gross. It should be cooked slightly past raw. When I make it at home, I sprinkle dill on and really enjoy that.

If you're ever concerned about a fishy taste, I understand you can soak fish in milk to reduce the fishiness.

Enjoy your fish!

We eat fish several times a week. I prefer salmon, halibut, or catfish... simply cooked. I just put a teaspoon of good olive oil in a non-stick fry pan, saute a few scallions, chopped, and a couple of cloves of garlic, minced. 30 seconds of saute, then in go the fillets. Cook about 6 minutes per inch of thickness, don't overcook. Salmon is cooked the most rare, catfish is cooked until the flesh is soft -- if a fork is resisted, cook it some more. A dash of fresh lime -- salt and pepper --- ahhhh....

My tastes did not change with WLS... but no beer etc due to carbonation increasing the pouch size, I do miss beer...
