cooking with "any" fish

[Kamyu]

what's the system stardew uses to determine which fish to pick for recipes requiring "any" when there's multiple options?

is it gonna use the first that shows up in the inventory/fridge? does it prioritize inventory fish over fridge ones? or does it pick the highest quality?

i'm asking because i store certain fish i need for recipes by name that i haven't cooked yet in the fridge and i'm too scared to make an "any fish" recipe in case it'll pick one i need for something else.

or can i somehow determine which fish they'll use?

From the wiki:

Every recipe searches for ingredients in the following locations, always in the same order from the bottom right slot to the top left slot:

first in the player's inventory
then in the main refrigerator
finally in any Mini-Fridges

When auto-sorted with the Organize button, this bottom-right-first order will automatically consume lower quality items of the same type. However, for recipes with substitutes, place ingredients accordingly as desired towards the bottom right, in order to avoid using more valuable ingredients in less valuable recipes, or in recipes that accept a wide variety of ingredients. As an example, Tuna (which is required for Fish Taco) is accepted in Sashimi which accepts any type of fish. However, by placing a Mussel in the bottom right slot, the Mussel will be picked first and save the Tuna for the more exclusive and valuable recipe.
When searching multiple Mini-Fridges, the game picks from the last placed one in the exact chronological order in which the fridges were first placed, and then works backwards. The location of the fridge in the farmhouse does not matter.

i'm very certain it chooses the lowest quality and cheapest ones first but you better test it just to make sure and post the results here just to be clear.

it chooses the first one in the avaible inventory, means the most topleft. if im not wrong it prefers to take from refrigarator first, but dont ask me where it starts when you have several. i use one dedicated to fish....
