Why does fish smell like ammonia after cooking if it was frozen?

Well, darling, that stench of ammonia coming off your fish after it's been frozen and cooked is due to a little thing called protein breakdown. When fish is frozen, the proteins break down into compounds that release that lovely ammonia smell when heated up. So, next time you're hit with that odor, just remember it's nature's way of reminding you that fish wasn't meant to be frozen and cooked.

What is the meaning of catch of the day?

Catch of the day refers to a fish caught within the last 72 hours or the fresh fish shelf life (usually 72 hours) that has not been frozen, canned or otherwise processed except for the Cleaning of the fish. Some places use this term but serve frozen fish that is not usually on the menu, this is not the catch of the day but a Fish special but venders find customers like to hear catch of the day instead. Some will even trick you more by putting MARKET PRICE, which is a common trick to make you think it is actually fresh. In reality most places use frozen fish and flat out lie to their customers by calling it CATCH OF THE DAY. If you want to be sure it is fresh ask to see your filet before its cooked, if they are giving you real fresh fish they should have no problem, if it takes 10 min or they refuse to show you, its frozen. Fresh fish will not be watery and will have a crisp color. Frozen fish will be mushy, watery and will not smell like anything or have a very light smell.
