Weird question maybe, but I don’t think I ever liked the taste of fish, except when I was young. I vaguely remember eating fish fingers and (I think) plaice. But then I stopped and never went back to it. I dislike the smell, I find salmon bland (although that may have been the salmon I tasted once). Are there any particular fish that would make the crossover from chicken to fish easier? Or any recipes that don’t disguise the taste of the fish too much, but make it more palatable for somebody that isn’t crazy about the taste? I see the health benefits and would love to just get stuck in, but there seems to be a block with the associated smell and I guess a one off bad one that put me off eating it. I picked up cod in the supermarket today, and then decided I should ask here first…😁 So hopefully I get a mixture of answers, but mostly some helpful. Thanks for reading.

Edit. Wow, wasn’t expecting to see this many replies. I have already seen some great ideas that I’m definitely going to try. I have to go through them all.

    I also don’t like fish

    I find that sushi is less offensive to me than cooked most of the time, so that’s one place to start. Still not something I’d actively seek out but if it’s what’s offered to me I can deal with it.

    I also overall find freshwater fish to be more palatable, I enjoy fishing so if I catch some decent sized trout worth keeping I’ll eat them (it’s more for my wife, but if we’re already cooking it I’ll eat it)

    My mom’s also not a fish eater, but can stomach flounder.
