Low in calories, high in protein, fish is one of the healthiest, tastiest, and most versatile of foods. This comprehensive volume tells the complete story of seafood--from where the various fish and shellfish are found, how they are caught, preserved, bought and cleaned, to the many delicious ways they can be prepared.
The salt water section includes such delights as shad, cod, bluefish, haddock, mackerel, halibut, tuna, herring, and salmon. The second section features mouthwatering ways to prepare fresh water favorites, such as trout, bass, carp, pickerel, pike, sturgeon, and catfish. Still another section contains new and exciting recipes for shellfish (both crustaceans and mollusks) such as crab, lobster, shrimp, crayfish, oysters, clams, mussels, squid, octopus, scallops, and snails.
In addition to more than 300 recipes covering soups, sauces, stuffings, stews, and exotic entrees (to name only a few), THE COMPLETE SEAFOOD COOKBOOK not only tells how to choose fresh seafood but also how much to buy to cover your specific need.
