Remarks
You can, of course, use fish fillets other than whiting, depending on the season and location.
If you have old-fashioned mustard, use it instead of classic mustard, as the seeds add a little extra texture.
You can also add a dash of Espelette pepper to the mustard, to enhance the taste a little.
