Betsy/TKL (9:24:15 pm) : According to one study, just two fish meals a week can significantly reduce the risk of heart attack. The reason: Fish oils, rich in unsaturated fats called omega-3 fatty acids, change the chemistry of the blood to lower the likelihood of heart disease. They also may help prevent or treat a wide range of other ailments, including migraine headaches and rheumatoid arthritis. As William Lands, a chemist at the University of Illinois in Chicago, observes: "From a scientific standpoint, fish oils are as exciting as all get out." The fish diet: What kinds? How much? All fish -- freshwater or saltwater, fatty or lean, fresh or frozen -- provide some benefits. But those that swim in cold ocean waters, such as salmon, mackerel, tuna and sardines, are higher in the wonder-working omega-3 fatty acids. Even crab, shrimp, lobster and other shellfish, long disdained as high in cholesterol, pack plenty of healthful omega-3 fatty acids -- and less cholesterol per serving than a single egg. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betsy/TKL (9:30:21 pm) : Title: Microwave Salmon Ring Categories: Fish, Microwave, Fast Yield: 4 servings 1 cn Salmon; 15 oz 1 Egg; lightly beaten 1 c Breadcrumbs 1/4 c Sour cream or whipping cream 1/2 ts Curry powder 1 Onion; small minced 1 ts -Salt 1/4 ts -Pepper 1 Lemon; juice & rind -----------------------------------SAUCE----------------------------------- 2 tb Butter 2 tb Flour 1 c Milk 3 ts Dill; chopped fresh or dill Fat grams per serving: Approx.

Cut the salmon into 1 lb steaks (not fillets). Place 1 salmon steak onto a sheet of foil, squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lemon, spread 1 tb of butter plus salt and pepper on the salmon. Wrap the salmon steak tightly in the foil (heavy duty) so as to make the best water tight seal as possible. Repeat for each steak. Boil the packages in water for 20 minutes. Remove and place in the freezer for an hour then refrigerate for 2 hours. When ready to serve, unwrap the salmon steaks carefully on a large platter and cover with warm Hollandaise Sauce.

Fresh Catfish 1/4 cup Hot Sauce 2 cups self rising white corn meal 1 tbs. Salt Cajun Seasoning Combine Catfish filet's with Louisiana Hot Sauce. (Tabasco is not as good but will be OK) Set in Refrigerator 30 minutes or so (optional), Pour into a paper sack with self rising White corn meal. Add salt and Cajun Seasoning (however hot you'd like, I use about a teaspoon full) to the corn meal. (if you want the Catfish to be HOT sprinkle the Cajun Seasoning directly on the meat) Then take the catfish directly from the Hot Sauce into the meal. Shake well to cover fish, then fry until done, the catfish will have a reddish brown color when done. This works well with Croppe, Bass, Brim, etc. Best served hot with warm Hush Puppies. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Margaret, MA (11:22:45 pm) : Baked Salt Cod with Ham and Tomatoes (Spain) 4 slices salt cod, each 1/2" thick 2 cups milk 1/3 cup olive oil 12 slices prosciutto 4 slices tomato, 1/4" thick 2 hard-cooked egg yolks, sieved 1/4 cup pitted black olives, cut in wedges 2 tsps. chopped parsley 1.Place cod in a glass bowl, cover with cold water and soak at least 12 hours, changing water several times. 2.Drain cod and rinse under cold water.
