Tips:

Choose the right fish: For best results, use a firm-fleshed fish such as salmon, cod, or halibut.
Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will give your marinade the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
Don't over-marinate the fish: Over-marinating the fish can make it tough and dry. For best results, marinate the fish for 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the thickness of the fish.
Use a non-reactive bowl: When marinating the fish, use a non-reactive bowl, such as a glass or ceramic bowl. This will prevent the fish from reacting with the metal and taking on a metallic taste.
Cover the fish completely: Make sure the fish is completely covered by the marinade. This will help the marinade to penetrate the fish evenly.
Refrigerate the fish while marinating: Always refrigerate the fish while it is marinating. This will help to prevent the fish from spoiling.
Discard the marinade after use: Never reuse the marinade after it has been used to marinate fish. This is because the marinade can contain bacteria that can make you sick.

Conclusion:

Marinating fish is a great way to add flavor and moisture to your fish dishes. By following these tips, you can create a delicious and flavorful fish marinade that will make your fish taste amazing. So next time you're cooking fish, don't forget to marinate it first!
