What is a cod loin?

When a fish as large as a cod is prepared, you get the same kinds of fillets that you would see from a trout (for example), but much much bigger! Because the fillets are so large, they tend to be cut into smaller units. In this case the 'cod loin' are simply cuts taken from the middle part of a filleted cod side. This is considered to be the best part of the cod.

I would have to say however that currently cod are considered a 'vulnerable' species, and if intensive fishing continues at current levels they will probably be extinct in the next 50 years. Please let these fine fish renew their population and try another alternative if possible.

What is sodium tri-polyphosphate used for in scallop production?

Scallops are "dipped" in a solution of tri-polyphosphate to increase water uptake so that they weigh more at the time of sale. Phosphates are also used to prevent drip loss during thawing of frozen scallops (as well as other lower quality fish and seafood). Scallops labeled "dry" are supposedly not treated, but since the wording of the labelling laws only prohibits dipping, scallop processors will usually resort to pouring or splashing the solution over the meat which ultimately accomplishes the same thing. The only way to really know if your scallops have been treated with phosphates is to investigate the practices of the watermen who do the catching and processing.

How do you use a fish knife at dinner?

Using a fish knife and fork is different to the manner in which one uses a dinner (meat) knife and fork, although they are held in the same way. When eating fish the fish knife is used to "separate" the "segments" of the meat, slipping the blade into the fish at the break and lifting it slightly sideways to separate it from the skin and the other meat, so that you can pierce the meat with the fork and lift it cleanly to your mouth. A fillet of fish is eaten from left to right, using the right hand side of the plate for discarded bones and skin unless a "bones plate" is provided. Place the "bones plate", touching your fish plate, above and slightly to the right. Separate the segments individually only when you wish to take them with your fork and if the sauce is placed upon the plate you can use the knife to lift the sauce and place it upon the fish portion before you eat it, do not "swirl" or "dip" the fish on your fork in the sauce. If the sauce is provided in a separate container, bring it to where it is touching your fish plate and use your knife to take the sauce and place it upon the fish before you bring it to your mouth.

Is Paco fish kosher?

Remember, there are two parts to Kosher. One is that the fish itself is acceptably under kashrut. The other is that it is prepared under kashrut. The fish is not going to be kosher if the restaurant cuts it up with the same knives used to cut up the shrimp and octopus.

What meant by curing meat and fish?

To salt, dry or preserve. Curing was developed as a means of preventing the spoilage of food so that it could be stored for extended periods. It basically consists of methods that remove the moisture from the food so that bacteria cannot live in or on it. Nowadays, refrigeration and radiation are more often used to inhibit the growth of bacteria, but some forms of curing can still be found, particularly smoking, which is often used with pork and fish to produce a unique flavor that regular cooking cannot.
