Our #seafood school is directly above the UK's largest, in-land seafood #market.

Locations don't get much better than that!

Several of our classes include tours of the market, giving you the perfect opportunity to hone your fish-selecting skills.

❓ Did you know that the Seafood School at Billingsgate has been a registered #charity since 1999? In that time we've taught thousands of schoolchildren how to safely prepare #fish dishes as part of a wholesome and #nutritious diet.

CJ's latest #FishToDish masterclass is here!

This week she's teaching us what to look for when buying beautiful fresh Dover sole.

What's your favourite #FreshFish to cook?

👀When buying the freshest #fish, the eyes have it!

Bright & clear, "life-like" eyes are a sign of freshness, while cloudy, sunken, dull or blotchy eyes can indicate that a fish is past its prime.

Still not sure? Give it a sniff - the fish should smell of the sea, not fish-y!

[The Seafood School at Billingsgate @SeafoodSchool]

We have spaces available on one of our best-selling classes next week.

'Hook, Line and Sinker' includes a visit to the market, specialised seafood skills, as well as fish to take home with you.

Scaling a #fish is an essential part of the preparation process. But it doesn't need to be messy!

CJ is here to teach us in 30 seconds, the best way to scale a fish.

What does it mean to cook #sustainably?

For us, it's eating more of the #fish species that are thriving, and saving some species as a special treat.

We all need to do our part to protect the seas that put food on our plates.
