see below Explanation: The definition of panfish in my Webster's is "any small, fresh-water nongame food fish as a perch or sunfish, usually eaten panfried." I don't agree with the previuos answer because when we think of "frittura" in Italian, we're talking about very different fish from the one I get under a "panfish" research in the Internet (see link below). It depends on how "precise" you need to be (is it a technical fish translation or a recipe?). A somewhat "loose" translation could be "pesce persico" (=perch) and/or "persico sole" (=sunfish). Hope this helps. Patricia Ferreira Reference: http://www.state.fl.us/gfc/fishing/Fishes/panfish.html Reference: http://www.iii.to.cnr.it/pesci/persico.htm |

pesce d'acqua dolce Explanation: panfish is fresh water fish usually cooked in a pan, including perch, crappies, blue gills (result of a research on Altavista using "panfish"). Also "pesci d'acqua dolce" (plural) is possible; it depends on the context. "Frittura" refers to salt water fish. |

...e di piccola taglia Explanation: Bluegill; Other panfish include: crappie Sun Fish Rock Bass Small sized too, which one can cook in a pan, as oppposed to bigger fresh water fish... Another site had this phrase "pan-sized as opposed to bragging-size" trout! Reference: http://www.zoomnet.net/~rladams/npanfish1.html |
