faq

is smoked haddock healthy?

To ensure you’re consuming the healthiest smoked haddock, always read the food labels to check for additives. Some smoked haddock can contain excessive amounts of sodium. If you’re not consuming more than the daily recommended amount of fish, then you’ll be fine.

does smoked haddock need to be cooked?

Yes. Most smoked haddock is prepared through cold smoking which doesn’t use heat and therefore doesn’t properly cook the fish. Don’t confuse it with smoked salmon, which can be eaten straight from the package a lot of the time.

why is smoked haddock yellow?

There can be two reasons:
Some people use natural spices like turmeric or paprika during the brining process which leaves a yellow color on the outside of the fish.
Some brands dye their haddock with yellow coloring to make it “look better”.

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb smoked haddock (500g) (We used frozen smoked haddock)

  • 2 tomatoes (diced)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk

  • Preheat the oven to 400F/200C
  • Sauté the onion, tomato and green pepper in a bit of oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season with the dried thyme, garlic and half the salt at this point too.
  • While the vegetables are cooking. Add the fish to small microwavable dish with the 1/4 of milk. Cover and microwave for 5-8 minutes. Long enough so it breaks apart easily. (We used frozen fish, so adjust the cooking time to 3-4 minutes if you have fresh fish).
