naka Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 I notice when I buy expensive cod from the local foodmarket that when defrosted you can wring the water out like a sponge. Are the suppliers intentionally loading the fish up with water in order to increase the weight/price ? Looks like Naka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES just like they do with the chicken in the UK, Inject as much water as possible to increase the profit margin & sod the customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tutsiwarrior Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 when I can find good local sea fish it is usually quite nice. When you go to the supermarket you can find many good substitutes for cod which is a cold water fish and not available in LOS fresh. Inna big outdoor market you have to buy the whole fish and maybe get the seller to fillet to a whiteman's satisfaction...sometimes not possible... get yourself some skinny knives and have a go...
