In response to a recent comment on one of my posts regarding Salmon I thought it would be helpful to post this link out there which highlights other, less common, choices for fish. It details several varieties of fish (along with their common monikers) that are purported to be more healthy when eaten and more environmentally friendly when fished. Something I am definitely going to try out is Arctic Char. This was a fish that was sometimes provided as the Special Meal of the day at the Pepper Mill restaurant in Canmore; where I worked for many years and was an instrumental factor in my future interest in cooking. The dish always received rave reviews yet I still haven’t tried it myself. Time to change that!

Check out Safe and Lesser-Known Fish Choices for the details.

    Nina and I love to make salmon cakes (bread crumbs, canned salmon, seasonings) every week or two – they certainly wouldn’t count as an alternative fish choice, but they’re quite a different and easy way to prepare fish that we hadn’t thought about until we stumbled across the recipe a little while back :D
