FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I make this recipe with hake steaks?
Absolutely! The cooking time may change slightly.
How long should I marinate the fish?
Our suggestion is to marinate for about 2 hours, but If you are short on time, you can reduce the marinating time to 1 hour or skip this step. Skipping the marination step might speed up the process, but the fish will lose flavor and tenderness.
Remember that while marinating enhances flavor and tenderness, it's important not to over-marinate, especially with acidic marinades such as lemon or orange, as this can negatively affect the texture and flavor of the recipe.
Can I store the fish in the fridge?
Yes, you can! Place the fish in an airtight container and let it cool to room temperature before storing in the refrigerator. Never store the fish for more than 2 days in the refrigerator.
