How do you know when Plaice is Cooked
The best way to tell if your fish is done is by testing it with a fork at an angle, at the thickest point, and twist gently.
The fish will flake easily when it’s done and it will lose its translucent or raw appearance.
A good rule of thumb is to cook the fish to an internal temperature of 140-145 degrees.
