After filleting fish like cod, striped bass, or other white, flaky fish I usually have a bunch of small pieces left over. They’re tough to work with, and that is precisely where Fish Tacos come into play. Think about it: who really wants to eat fish chowder in the summer anyway? Fish Tacos solve the problem and make for a delicious and fun meal. Of course you don’t need to wait until you have scrap pieces, a regular piece of cod or striped bass can be chopped up on demand.
