Baked White Fish by John Goins

This is an herbaceous fish dish, but also has the umami and salt of the soy sauce. It calls for cod, but any meaty white fish will work such as John Dory, swordfish or halibut.

Mama's Tuna Patties by Miss Polly Motzko

My mom used to make Tuna Patties when I was growing up and then I made them when I was married.
