Seafood questions, answered

What is the easiest seafood to cook for beginners
Baked salmon, garlic butter shrimp, and lemon butter tilapia are the simplest places to start. All three cook in under 20 minutes with just a few ingredients.
How do I know when fish is fully cooked
Most fish is done when it turns opaque and flakes easily with a fork, around 145F. Salmon and tuna are often pulled a little earlier for a moist or rare center.
Which seafood recipes are fastest for a weeknight
Garlic butter shrimp, seared scallops, seared tuna, and baked salmon all land on the table in 15 to 20 minutes. A poke bowl needs no cooking at all.
Do I need sushi-grade fish for sushi and poke
Yes, when the fish is served raw. Buy salmon or tuna labeled sushi-grade or sashimi-grade, or build your rolls and bowls with cooked shrimp, crab, or tofu instead.
