Buying fish – “For the best quality, buy from supermarkets that display fish on ice in refrigerator cases,” writes Hunt, whose daily newspaper column is syndicated nationally through Creators Syndicate, and is enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of “Everyday Cheapskate” readers. “A fresh-caught fish has almost no odor; it will not smell ‘fishy,’” she advises. “An ammonia-like smell develops when fish has been stored several days – don’t buy! The eyes should look clear, not cloudy; the scales should be bright pink, not gray. The flesh should be unblemished, edges intact, not torn; when pressed with a finger, the flesh should give slightly but bounce back.”
