Tip of the day

 
Fresh fish
To test the freshness of fish, make sure the eyes are bulging and the gills are reddish. Also see that the scales are adhering firmly to the skin and that the flesh when pressed is firm to the touch. The fish should have no offensive odor, especially around the gills and belly.
