The Art Of Choosing And Cooking Sustainable Seafood
Are you a seafood foodie? At FCEC, we are all about seafood… the right kind of seafood!
What do we mean by the right kind of seafood? Safe, sustainable fish to eat! Seafood for the Future created an Inspired Choices culinary magazine featuring local healthy choices of fish, cooking tips and creative recipes from local chefs to expand your palates and knowledge of sustainable seafood!
For some, eating the right kind of seafood may seem like a daunting task, so they may completely remove seafood from their diet. That’s not the way to go. By consuming safe, sustainable seafood, you provide your body with many health benefits such as protein and vitamins. However, sometimes certain types of seafood can cause your body harm. That’s why it’s important to pick the right kind of seafood. If you love fishing or going on an adventure to catch your own meal, make sure you are aware of the local fishing advisory. FCEC recommends not consuming white croaker, black croaker, topsmelt, barred sand bass and barracuda caught off the Southern California coast due to contamination.
The art of choosing and cooking sustainable seafood is not only a mark of an ethical angler, but a responsible and healthy human being. So, select a safe, sustainable fish and a recipe from Inspired Choices and enjoy a Tropical Mahi Mahi with Mango-Pineapple Salsa, a Crispy Stripped Bass, or a Gently Spiced Trout BLT Appetizer to end the summer.
