shrimply delicious

I bought this book after seeing these guys at a cooking demo in the New York area--and it's as entertaining as they are! I love all the cool info about shrimp, and I love the international dishes they create. Plus, the whole thing has this really great sense of humor. I love shrimp--and now I have enough great recipes to last me a long, long time. Plus, it's so cool that it doesn't cost much but you get a lot of great shrimp recipes!

an ultimate book in every way

i have made recipes from this book and unlike some of the other reviewers who haven't, i can tell you that they are spectacular. they are written in a very straightforward way and that's a good thing. they are easy to follow. and while some of the variations that follow recipes are simple, i wouldn't have thought of them myself. turning the delicious shrimp puffs into chinese shrimp puffs requires the addition of ginger, cilantro, and chili oil, while omitting the thyme and tabasco. basil and fish sauce are added to create thai shrimp puffs. yummy. and as for information, well the introduction in this book tells me more about shrimp than i ever knew. did you know that fresh shrimp are almost always frozen? and there are detailed instructions on how to peel and devein a shrimp (of different sizes) right there on page 5. i've enjoyed cooking from this book and it's one of those i keep right in my kitchen and turn to time and time again.

a jumbo shrimp book

This is a wonderful book, full of traditional and innovative recipes. I love the shrimp-y takes on classics like Diane, A la King, Fra Diavolo, and Lasagna. My family also liked the international focus--African, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, Japanese. We've even learned to make our own sushi rolls! We had a blast this summer with this book. There's nothing fancy--just solid recipes with lots of ideas for varying them endlessly. In the end, this is a book I'll come back to again and again. True, it's not a coffee table cookbook--but then, I'm not a coffee table cook.

This Book Has Everything a Shrimp Lover could Love!

I rarely by a book because of it's cover, but this one made my mouth water. And every recipe I've made so far has lived up to my expectations. DELICIOUS! The recipes are clear and easy to follow and the dishes come out perfectly every time. The Asian dishes are my favorites so far. By far this book has the best recipe for Coconut Fried Shrimp I have ever had. And it's nice to have all my other favorite shrimp recipes in one place.

Massive Collection of Shrimp Recipes

Imagine someone who collected shrimp recipes of every nature: BBQ, boiled, steamed, in dumplings, stews, phylo wrapped, et al, and then published them in a cookbook. Further, this person with most every recipe gives options, 4 or 5 or more for each recipe.Here is that very collection, nicely done again by Weinstein, who has did others on ice cream, candy, drinks.Interesting options here include Shrimp ... Tamale Pie, Sweet and Sour, Stroganoff, Phyllo Pillows, Paella.Also useful is the section on buying, preparing and storing, along with a whole section on equipment and ingredients, and sources. If you're one who has to have color photos, forget this book,none of them.For all us shrimp consumers, this will be a great boost to shrimp consumption!
