The formidable River Cottage team turns their attention to all matters aquatic in this definitive guide to freshwater fish, saltwater fish, and shellfish. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Nick Fisher examine the ecological and moral issues of fishing, teach individual skills such as catching and descaling, and offer a comprehensive (and fascinating) species reference section. They also demystify the cooking of fish with 135 recipes for preparing fish and shellfish in diverse ways, from pickling to frying to smoking.
This ambitious reference-cookbook appeals to both intellect and appetite by focusing on the pleasures of catching, cooking, and eating fish while grounding those actions in a philosophy and practice of sustainability. The authors help us understand the human impact on the seafood population, while their infectious enthusiasm for all manner of fish and shellfish—from the mighty salmon to the humble mackerel to the unsung cockle—inspires us to explore different and unfamiliar species. Fish is superlative food, but it’s also a precious resource. The River Cottage Fish Book delivers a complete education alongside a wealth of recipes, and is the most opinionated and passionate fish book around.

Condition: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2012). (2007) 2012 1st US edition. 4to (201 x 271mm). Pp608. Colour photographs throughout, photograph end-papers. Laminated boards, issued without a dust-wrapper. Fine new copy. An excellent book packed with useful information and great pictures. Loads of recipes for every species of fish, crustacean and mollusc you are likely to encounter in British waters, quite a bit on gathering and catching them first, lots on storing, salting, smoking, freezing, pickling and preserving, with much incidental opinion and advice worth taking notice of. The original British edition gives only metric measurements - this edition inserts American measurements in front of the metric figures. The two editions are otherwise identical, with the addition of a section of "Notes to the US edition, p590." This explains the exotic world of British home waters to US readers. It compares laws and regulations, discusses availability of the species under discussion and suggests close substitutes. PREVIOUS PRICE 45.00. Seller Inventory # 46233
