Catfish is a marine fish from the perch-like family. Catfish meat is very tender, slightly sweet, almost boneless and very oily. Cooking catfish is best done by baking it in the oven. You can cook it steamed or grilled, and if fried, then in batter or previously boiled in very salt water, otherwise the pieces of fish literally "spread" in a pan.
