From the Publisher:
In this outstanding book, Rick Stein, Britain’s top seafood chef, takes us on a journey in search of the best fish in Britain and Ireland. The book is organized geographically, and Stein offers colorful details of fish–catching and fish–eating traditions as well as local life and legends. Singling out native delicacies, he offers six to eight recipes per chapter, including Brandade and Haricot Bean Soup with Trufže Oil, Stuffed Grilled Mussels, Stir–Fried Clams with Ginger and Garlic, and Poached Sea Bass with Beurre Fondue. Each beautifully illustrated chapter ends with an area map and a guide to the best hotels, restaurants, pubs, and suppliers. Rick Stein’s books include the award–winning English Seafood Cookery and Taste of the Sea. The BBC series that accompanied Rick Stein’s Seafood Lovers’ Guide won the Glenfiddich 2001 Television Program Award.
