How To Cook Fish En Papillote
Fish en papillote is a delicious and healthy way to cook fish. "En papillote" means "in parchment" in French. This cooking method involves baking fish and vegetables in parchment paper, which helps to lock in the flavor and moisture of the ingredients. Here at the Fish Society we recently ran our first ‘Cooking Fish Perfectly’ online masterclass. Jeremy channeled his inner Keith Floyd and showcased how to make foolproof fish en papillote, with the ease and swagger of a well versed kitchen wizard.
