One of the cookbooks I use the most

I own a few hundred cookbooks with a dozen or so being favorites and this is one of my favorites and for a variety of reasons. First because it is so complete and covers frying, poaching and steaming (a favorite),simmering and stewing, oven cooking, grilling,campfire (another favorite), smoke cooking and pickling. This makes it a well rounded fish cookbook. The photos are excellent and the information on cooking utensils needed is precise and clear cut. Spices and other ingredients are covered so well as are step by step directions.On page 6 there is a well laid out substitution chart that makes the book worth the price, and here are a few examples. A recipe calls for Whitefish, The chart notes that if Cisco is called for that Tullibee, herring o lake herring can be substituted. Page 7 shows detailed photos and text for preparing fish for cooking. Did you know that by sprinkling salt on the counter and laying the fish on the salt that this helps prevent the fish from slipping when filleting or deboning? Simply rinse fish with water when done. Or on page 11 that draining fried fish on cookie cooling racks placed over paper towels allows for more oil to drain and prevents the fried fish from becoming soggy?Or on page 71 that pouring 1/4 to 1/2 inch of liquid like fish stock, wine, beer, or vegetable broth into the broiling pan before broiling adds moisture and flavor during cooking?Some of my favorite recipes from the book are the Sauteed Trout with wild mushrooms, Potato flaked Fillets, the various Buttermilk based coatings, Northwest Salmon Burritos, Salsa stuffed Trout and Smoked Salmon Salad.This is a cookbook for any serious, healthy eating fisherman/cook.

All-time Favorite Fish Recipes

This book is full of delicious recipes without exotic ingredients nor without exotic fish! It puts a spring in the step of eating fish again. I am now done with the same old recipes I had been using and now use this book as my source! My nephew saw this book on the table (he's the big fisherman in the family) and is ordering this book as well.

Good Cooking

I recently bought this book for my boyfriend for his birthday, and I must say, we both love it. He has this new cooking frenzy going on, and I am enjoying every bit of it, because I love to eat. We are both fish lovers, so this book has been very helpful to the both of us. The recipes are tasty and healthy as well. I would recommend it to anyone that likes to eat fish.
