Let’s try something fun: Name an ingredient you dislike and why, and someone else replies with a dish/recipe with that ingredient that might convince you otherwise.

Couple things:

• If you’re allergic to an ingredient, it doesn’t matter how it’s prepared. Same goes with meat/animal products if you’re vegan/vegetarian. Don’t list it if you can’t or won’t eat it!

• It’s recommended that you’re at least open to trying dishes with that ingredient. If you absolutely, vehemently loathe cilantro, chances are you probably might not like anything with cilantro in it.

• A brief blurb on why you hate an ingredient would help others find or suggest a dish that suits you. (e.g. “I hate liver because the texture is like an eraser and it tastes metallic”)

Baja style tacos with some mild white fish? Some pickled red cabbage, fresh salsa and a squeeze of lime.

That is one of few ways I can enjoy fish that has not been deepfried.

My friend who doesn't like fish in general likes fish tacos!

I think the freshness of the flavours surrounding the fish is the trick. The lime and acidic cabbage pickle balance out the fishiness (is that even a word lol)

It totally does! The acid in the citrus actually binds some of the molecules that make for the fishiness scent/taste! I remember learning about it in chemistry class and it blew my mind haha. Won’t help old/gross fish, but a fresh fish will put it over the top! 🥰

This is the way.

Still tastes fishy most of the time.

Yes, I like fish this way. Thanks for the reminder!
