Fish Heads & Tails On Friday

My mother always use to tell me we were having fish on Fridays. I am not sure why, but I think it comes from the Catholic religion. However, I was brought up Methodist so that doesn’t quite make sense. Well anyway Canthy eats fish every day as our Yue Sao says it contains a lot of protein and minerals, which are good for making baby milk. The fish are always bought fresh from the market so the quality and taste is really good. Whereas when I was growing up fish on Friday often meant fish fingers, or frozen fish rather than the fresh kind. Canthy never never eats frozen food as she doesn’t think it is healthy. However, I told her that in the UK many people live on frozen food, whether it’s fish, meat vegetables or even ready-made meals. When I told our Yue Sao about this she wrinkled up her face and said “bu hao chi” (not tasty). Then proceeded to cut up the fish into heads and tails cooked and cook it fresh for breakfast.
