Eat fish!
From Taru, Finland

During the winter it is dark and lack of sun shine which provides D-vitamin producing in our body system. Our central health care system and doctors have said that it is better for us is we achieve the D-vitamin from daily food. Of course there is an alternative that you are able to go a shop and buy products including D-vitamin.
I show you how it is to make a fish for food.
The first you have to go fishing or you can go to a shop and buy fish. You should choose fishes which includes fat, 'cos D-vitamin is compounded by fishes fat. I didn't had time to go fishing but it would be a possibility also during the weekends but I bought the fishes which are small and quick to repair and doesn't include so much fat.

I had to take a pan, a plate, fishes, a wooden fork, butter and salt. The fishes are vendaces. It is a fish which grows in the inner land lakes.

I put the heat under the pan and took butter. The butter have to melt before adding the fishes on the pan.

When the pan is hot and butter cooks, I add the vendaces to the fat. I spread a bit salt over the fish and after for a while cooking turned them to another side.
When the vendace is cooked by both side it looks like having a golden cover. It has to spread salt to this side too. The time for cooking is about 3-5 minutes to both sides. It depends how strong the heat is under the pan.

I cooked also mashed potatoes. And then I just added the vendaces to my plate. A delicious lunch was ready to enjoy.
Have a nice day

Bahij: Good question. I think that I wrote D-vitamin like it is written in finnish and now I think that how you wrote it Vitamin D is the right form. Hope the teacher blogger find the right kind of form on it.
Future: Hmm...You can learn many kind of things here and the most of all you are able to enlarge your opinions and views. Despite of different cultures and policies human beings are quite the same at the bottom. That is fasionating.
All the best you
Taru

Bahij is correct - in English we say "Vitamin D" or "Vitamin C" - but I have no idea why!
Take care

Most of the time telepathy happen to me when I miss some of my close relatives or friends and it 's sweet and strange on the other side .There are lots of things in this world which are still secret to us . Speaking of your second Blog : I haven't tried those small fish but certainly they are delicious with such a simple recipe ! In the past we could try smoked little fishes of the river by peddler in the street and once we tried them and they were really yammy .

Anyway, we usually fry food in olive oil so it is healthier and less stodgy. We mainly use butter when we prepare cake. I think once butter used to be added to almost every dish, but since we found out it is fattier that olive oil we have started using oil especially when we fry fish. Cheers!!

You know, I am into cooking so it was interesting to read your blog about Vendace. As I have never heard about Vendace I had to google for it and found out that it is freshwater whitefish. The meal looks absolutely delicious and I would like to try it.
On some occasions we go to restaurants, where I often order some fish because I like fish very much but my family does not, unfortunately. So that is the reason why I rarely cook fish. Anyway, I opened a can of tuna in olive oil yesterday, added finally chopped onions, some mustard and stirred gently. The dinner was ready.
Take care,
Anita from Slovakia

I notice that you have tickled the taste buds of everyone out here. I like fish very much so I just love to taste different varieties of fish whole heartedly. I even want to taste puffer fish once which is an ubiquitous delicacy of Japan.
The recipe you have shared seems very easy and simple and mouth watering at the same time. Thank you once again and it's been wonderful and informative reading your blog posts dear Taru.

Pary: Thank you for your comment, you are so kind.
Filippo: I think it is obvious that you were not able to find Vendace in Italy, cos it did not belong to its fish spieces. Here is more information about Vendace . Olive oil is very good to cook food, I use it for many things f. ex. baking, but in this case it have to be butter.
Anita: yes, it is freshwater white fish. Slovakia has also some freshwater lakes, so you may find some others to taste.
Fulano: You are right. The food from water and sees are the mostly delicious. I have also tasted shrimps and octabussy.
Naheed: The daily food have to be simble and quick to repair. If have more time, like on weekends, it can be done some salates and beverages with.
Thanks all of you for your comments.

It is lovely to read your post again.You konw that my saliva emerged out to all my mouth when I enjoy your words and pictures.
In the meantime ,I do love seafood very much ,including fish,shrimp,crab,stuff like that.When I was a very little boy ,every meal, I hardly ate vegetable and meat,except seafood.Years by years,I have been a strong growth,and eat different vegetable and meat now ,but my favor to seafood is not ever been took off.
Due to the reason of my work,I can go around the world ,so can have chance to eat food everywhere.The first choice in a restaurant for me is also seafood.
However ,the method from you to make the fish is never tasted by me,so I will do it when I finished this business.
Thank you again for sharing such wonderfull food with us.
Yours sincerely!
Michael

Thank you very much for sharing, this really made me learn some knowledge
Common and release fish nearly always fall into the mouth, and would not have thought of knowledge about fish
To hear you talk about fish, really big help for us, but neglected by me
I wish you health and happiness
