Eliminate fish odors
Many people do not like to cook seafood indoors as they do not have an adequate exhaust system in their home. This can be easily solved by using a little white vermouth in the pan for either sautéing or baking; the oils from the fish bond with the vermouth preventing the oils from turning to steam - eliminating or greatly reducing any odor problems

How to get that deep fried flavor at home!
You don't need a commercial fryer to cook your favorite deep fried products at home, but to do it right, start with a high grade oil (peanut oil works well as it is good for cooking at high temps and has a nice flavor, though in the old days we actually used to use lard). Place about 2" of oil in a sauce pan and heat oil to 350 degrees (deep fryer thermometers clip right to the side of the sauce pan and can be purchased at any gourmet and many hardware store). Place frozen product in oil for about 1 minute, or until breading just starts to turn a light golden color. Remove and place on paper towels. Let product rest for 5 minutes - this lets your oil reheat and lets heat work through product. If you try cooking from frozen until fully cooked, you will have to burn the outside to get product fully cooked. After you have let product "rest" for 5 minutes, make sure that your oil has returned to 350 degrees and add your product. Cook until golden brown; this should only take about another 2 minutes. When product floats it is fully cooked.

Tips for Broiling Fish
Place fish on flat metal sheet tray; grease with olive oil - always season fish first. The easiest way to test fish is to take a small knife and pry under fish and fish will open if starting to flake and you'll be able to see if fish is cooked through.

Tip on Selecting Seafood
When you are looking at whole fish, the eyes should be clear and should not be clouded over. In fillets, the fish should have an odor of water - you should never smell an odor of fish or ammonia. Fish should be firm.

Sauteing Fish
When sauteing fish, place it in the pan skin side up. This helps keep it moist and after you've turned it over, you have the presentation side up.

Fight Fried Odors
No one likes the “fried” food odor that is left in your house after frying foods. Next time you fry foods, try placing a small cup of bleach nearby. Most of the odor will be absorbed by the bleach, eliminating the lingering odor. Be sure to toss the bleach out after you have finished frying.
