Has Anyone Used This To Make Cod Fish Gravy?Sam

Yes, and it's very good. Be sure you soak the dried fish for several hours in cold water, changing the water once or twice to make sure the salt is rinsed out and the fish is tender. After I've drained it I make up some bechamel sauce, fold the fish into it, and add whatever seasonings I think it needs. I generally use use salt and white pepper, a few drops of Tabasco, and maybe some seafood seasoning--Old Bay is an excellent brand--as well. This gravy is wonderful over boiled potatoes or buttered toast, and for some reason I think it always tastes especially good for breakfast, lunch, or dinner when the weather is cold. I hope this helps! 745kevin Yes, and it's very good.

I never heard of cod fish gravy but it sounds interesting. Do you have a recipe?

I like it......more for a sandwich. Easy......stir with salsa and cook and a little butter. Less than a minute. Experiment with it. I sent one to my sister and she makes a poached egg.

I haven't had too much trouble. If you do, just spray the grates with Pam before you begin cooking. Although I haven't had to do this. Thanks Dave

We've used it for both, and it works perfectly. Spray with Pam or coat with oil; we're enjoying fish more often now that we can grill rather than fry it. KDJ

You can cook gravy. The grease channel is just a little dip along one side of the grill where liquid can pool. I used mine to make a pot roast, a big pan of scrambled eggs, etc.

I haven't tried it. I got it primarily to blend Hormel meals for my son. I have chopped onions and ice and it did great with those. Sorry.

I haven't tried it, but it would probably work quite well, since both those sauces are generally done with a double-boiler-type setup. Both of these sauces require a moderate heat to keep them from "breaking".

I haven't used this product for that yet. It was one of multiple items in a few other recipes I was trying. So far it has been fine in those.

There will be a slight fish flavor just because fish is the base of the sauce. I know there are some who use it as a dipping sauce, but, that would be too salty for me, personally. Experiment. Try it in stirfrys.

Absolutely! We've done so several times and loved the results. Important note: although this is a quality rice, it still has some sort of harmless dusty stuff, probably to keep it from sticking. It helps a lot if you rinse the uncooked grains until the water runs clear, before cooking as usual for sushi. ;)

No. We use it for fish, chicken breast, and some times a pork chop. We have the saying, you can always cook more if it's not ready, but you can't uncook anything. We put mixed veggies on top with a sauce that drips down to the meat and cook from 7 to 10 minutes. If the veggies are to done (I like my crispy), then you can take the layer out and continue cooking the meat. It is very handy and we are considering buying a second one as we use it several times a week. Hope this answers you question. I really recommend the steamer if you like to eat healthy. I am a diabetic and this is great for me. Hope this helps. No. We use it for fish, chicken breast, and some times a pork chop.

I have used it to bread fish but never meat. Worked well with sole and tilapia.

Ive use it for breaded chicken strips, sweet potato fries and such. They came out great. These were pre-pacjkaged frozen items, though...if you are breading them yourself I have no idea, though a friend of mine uses hers for chicken and fish that has been coated in cracker crumbs.

Yes. You can get free recipes on the internet for rubs and sauces/marinades. This works great and holds a good steady temperature since you don't have to open the door to add wood chips while smoking. If you buy this, do NOT skip the break-in step, it seasons the unit for use and you only need do it once. We love ours and use it every week. Also, use a 55 gal contractor size trash bag to cover the unit when not in use they are cheaper than the factory-sold cover and last longer.

I've never used the basket to cook a fish, but as long as the fish fits on it, I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. I've used the basket to cook wings, chicken, ribs, roast, and tenderloin...and they all turn out great. I am planning to use it to cook salmon fillets, too, but haven't done it yet. I would definitely try it.

I use mine for homemade bab sauce without issue. It's about as thick as ketchup.

I bought mine for fish and have used it many times without any problems. Should work fine for the food you mentioned.
