What is Tilapia like? *I'm not a big fish eater, but they sell them
from a tank at the nearby supermarket, and I was thinking of giving
them a try. *So they shouldn't, since they're so fresh, they shouldn't
taste fishy at all?


Tilapia - Seafood Selector - Environmental Defense Fund...


That's an informative site. *I also found this:http://fishcooking.about..com/od/mee.../p/tilapia.htm

This is what I might like about this fish: (Nice and boring; doesn't
taste like fish.)
One thing I don't like about tuna is it's richness. *I must be
allergic to it or something, because I don't feel very well after I
eat a tuna steak.

What does tilapia taste like? Well...not much. It is very lean, very
white and very high in protein. And it has almost no flavor of its
own. Personally, I find it boring. Give me a rich, fatty tuna or even
an anchovy any day. Tilapia doesn't "taste like fish," which is why it
is so popular in the United States.

I love it. It's what's for dinner, salted, peppered, dredged in corn
meal and fried in peanut oil with fresh lemons to squeeze on.

It's a white meat fish that feeds off of shit. White meat, it's a fish. Sucks compared to freshwater perch or blue gill (or, even northern).

Tastes great compared to ocean perch they ship to the upper midwest.
