Thread: Fish & Chips

I like a good serving of chips. I hate when you can count at a glance the number of chips on the plate.

Get that, also the colder environment the higher the oil content tends to be in the fish, adds to the flavour.

I thought it was due to the higher oxygen content of cold sea water as to why they taste better compared to tropical fish.

Oxygen doesn't really taste of much unless in O3 form

Doesn't mention taste though...

Best and Worst Cold Water Fish to Eat | MD-Health.com

Omega-3 fatty acids are known as an essential fat. Your body cannot produce this fat so you will need to take it in from dietary sources. Some plants contain omega-3 fatty acids, but most sources that are high in this particular ingredient are fish. Coldwater fish are particularly high in omega-3 fatty acids because they live in environments that promote production of this fat very well. Increasing your intake is commonly recommended to help you get the omega-3s you need. How to Choose Cold Water Fish for Omega-3s

• Choose Saltwater Fish- Salt water fish tend to have more omega-3s than freshwater varieties. They tend to live in deeper, colder water that makes it necessary for them to produce additional omega-3 fatty acids as insulation. Mackerel and sardines are particularly well-known for containing high amounts of this fatty acid. Salmon and trout are also known for containing high amounts of omega-3s.

About all I can afford is the gaseous indigestion from them that the wife has come to know and love.

They do at a pinch when suffering the munchies at midnight, but I find them too sweet. I buy them on the Malaysian border, duty free when doing a run.
I do recommend Ayam sardines...they're up there with Brunswick.

Are they in Tomato sauce, i hate fish in tomato but can't seem to locate sardines/pilchards in just oil or brine in Thailand.

^ nothing with Lite in the name is any good

Re Watties: The ex was a Kiwi and that was the brand she craved. So its what you grow up with that gives you the comforts.

You can buy them in oil. I don't recall seeing them in brine.
