Round Fish

A fish classification, including species such as trout, bass, cod, pike, snapper and salmon, which has a backbone along its upper body with a fillet located on both sides. Round fish have an eye located on each side of its head. To check the fish for doneness, use the tip of a sharp knife and cut through the thickest part of the fillet. If the fish has been properly cooked, the meat will appear opaque but will still be moist.
