If you're only allergic to shellfish (crab, lobster, shrimp), then you should be fine with any regular fish.
The ammonia smell in shellfish typically indicates spoilage or decomposition. When shellfish die, bacteria begin to break down their tissues, leading to the production of ammonia as a byproduct. Additionally, if shellfish are not stored properly or are past their prime, they can develop this strong odor, signaling that they may not be safe to consume. Always ensure shellfish are fresh and properly handled to avoid any health risks.
This could be cioppino, which is a shellfish and fish stew where the shellfish often are still in the shell. It can include fish, shrimp/prawns, clams, crab legs, or whatever else is fresh or available. It is typically cooked in a thick, tomato-based base. A variation on this is bouillabaisse where the shellfish are out of the shell, making it easier to eat without making a big mess (but the mess is part of the fun!).
To determine if a shellfish is still alive, you can tap on its shell; if it closes tightly in response, it's a sign that it is alive. Additionally, check for any movement or opening of the shell. Fresh shellfish should also have a clean, ocean-like smell; a foul odor indicates it may be dead or spoiled. Always discard any shellfish that remain open or do not respond to touch.
The plural of shellfish is shellfish.
The Heron is a carnivore, and will eat fish, frogs, shellfish, crabs, and other aquatic creatures, be they in fresh or salt water.
