Frequently asked questions
Are there pescatarian options without fish every night?
Many combine seafood with eggs, dairy, beans, or tofu on alternating days—browse protein tags to mix.
How fresh should seafood be for these recipes?
Buy for same-day or next-day cook when possible. Frozen thawed fish works when patted dry; steps say when.
