Seasonings might include herbs like thyme, rosemary, or parsley; spices like paprika or black pepper; and citrus fruits like lemon or lime. Sauces can range from simple butter sauces to more complex wine or cream-based reductions.
Ask About Freshness
Don't hesitate to inquire about the day's freshest catches and the origin of the seafood.
Consider Preparation
Choose a preparation method that complements the type of seafood. Delicate fish might be best grilled or pan-seared, while heartier fish can stand up to bolder sauces.
Wine Pairing
Pair your seafood dish with a complementary wine. White wines like Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay often pair well with fish, while lighter-bodied reds might work with certain types of shellfish.
Sauce Selection
Think about what kind of sauce you enjoy and how it complements the fish. A light lemon butter sauce won't overpower a delicate fish, while a bolder sauce is good for a firmer fish.
