Talapia is a great tasting white meat fish that is found fresh or frozen. It is also noted being lower in mercury levels than other fish.

What is Talapia?

Hi Renee,
I was "introduced" to Talapia about a year ago. I didn't think that I would like any fish as much as I liked Whiting, but Talapia is rather tasty whether baked or fried. I have not found it to be a bony fish, however. It's terrific fresh, but we've had the frozen stuff to, actually not bad and I usually hate fish that has been frozen.

I have a very good Latina friend who took me to a Mexican seafood restaurant years ago. That was the first time I had tried tilapia and have been a fan since. But my two favorite fish to prepare/eat are salmon and mahi mahi (mahi mahi is also called dorado or dolphinfish depending on where you reside). Whiting is also very good!

I love Tilapia..just had it for dinner last night..Cajun crusted tilapia...mmm good.
