Greetings all,

I am a LOVER of fish, mostly from the sea but I do also like Trout, Perch and freshwater Catfish.

I had such a hard time identifying my favorite kinds of Fish & Seafood at the supermarket, so I put together a list of the names translated into how they are known in English. Hope it makes your lives easier:

Kabeljau - Cod
Steinbutt - Turbot
Flusskrebs - Crayfish
Wolfbarsch - Wild Bass, Sea Bass
Brasse - Sea Bream

Claresse - European Catfish, cook with strong flavours
