Many people wonder how to cook sea fish in a way that minimizes this fishiness. While it's challenging to eliminate every bit of the fishy taste, the goal is to make it acceptable or barely noticeable.How to Cook Sea Fish Without a Fishy TasteTo reduce the fishiness of sea fish, you first need to decide on the cooking method—whether it's frying, stir-frying, boiling, or something else.
