Loading ...Why do people think lemon goes with fish?
l3v1ck
Ok, when you go to your local chippy, you know vinegar is the best choice for your nicely battered bit of Haddock. We all agree on that, you, me and everyone else on the planet. Where I find myself in the minority though is when I order fish in pubs and restaurants. It doesn’t really matter what kind of fish or how it’s cooked, all pubs and restaurants serve fish with a wedge of lemon on top. The question I have is why? Obviously someone somewhere seems to think that fish tastes nice when it’s be soaked with lemon. Not me. I find the lemon ruins the flavour of the fish (and the sauce if it comes with some) and I can’t understand how anyone’s taste buds would like such a combination of flavours.
So which of you like lemon with fish (and why?) and which of you (like me) can’t understand why chefs keep on ruining our food with a fruit that belongs in drinks with ice?
