    University of Minnesota Press Smoke on the Waterfront: The Northern Waters

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisA cultural icon of Lake Superior cuisine shares its story, recipes, and techniques A port city where shipping, the fur trade, hunting, and fishing—and infamously long, cold winters—have made the preserving and preparing of meat a singular art, Duluth, Minnesota, was uniquely well suited for the Northern Waters Smokehaus when Eric Goerdt launched it in 1998. Fresh off a stint in Sitka, Alaska, where he’d learned a method of smoking fish called kippering, Goerdt set up shop, and soon what had started as a small sandwich counter expanded into a downtown mainstay with a worldwide trade in its signature offerings, all manner of meat and fish smoked and cured on site. A celebration of the Smokehaus’s singular contribution to the region’s cuisine, Smoke on the Waterfront brings two decades of experience to the table, laying out for food-smoking devotees and for home cooks the stories, recipes, and techniques that have made the establishment a beloved fixture of Third Coast culture. The Northern Waters Smokehaus crew shares their many ways of preserving food (smoking, canning, fermenting, charcuterie), including detailed instructions for their kippering process. Smoke on the Waterfront presents recipes that take advantage of the natural bounty of Lake Superior’s north shore and capture the flavor of a port city’s old-world charm—all workable with simple equipment, such as kettle grills, allowing home cooks to bring the delicious flavors of the Northern Waters Smokehaus to their own kitchens. From simple sandwich construction all the way to sausage twisting, these recipes give readers an opportunity to up their game or to savor their own view of the Smokehaus experience: brining, grilling, freezing, pickling, and fermentation; preparing a charcuterie board, with guidance on sausage, confit, rillettes, light butchery, and sourdough; and roasting, smoking, and braising meats. Whitefish smoked or made into a spread or stock; lake trout curried or stuffed with gremolata; pulled pork Minnesota style, smoked wings, and ribs and kimchi with maple sambal; pickled peppers, onions, jalapeños, mushrooms, and, of course, sauerkraut; smoked Polish, Andouille, lamb, and potato sausages; eelpout étouffée, confit duck legs, poultry liver gravy, and pâté; three-day duck poutine, porketta and pasta, braised ruminant, bison pastrami: that’s a sample of the provisions that run from roe and gravy to casseroles, chowder, and ice cream. Featuring beautiful photographs, carefully crafted recipes, and the pithy conversational comments of the restaurant’s veterans, Smoke on the Waterfront evokes the history and the promise of a rich regional culture that endures—and transcends—boundaries. Trade Review "Smoke on the Waterfront is the cookbook for anyone who appreciates regional and seasonal American cooking. Northern Waters Smokehaus owner Eric Goerdt has created a business in which folks want to work and collaborate and learn and explore and celebrate the culinary wonders of Lake Superior and northern Minnesota. And for the rest of us, we get to reap the bounties of these explorations. Divided by season, this cookbook is a love letter dosed with affectionate prose toward the greatest of lakes, structured around tried and true recipes that require care, time, and patience to reap the greatest rewards. Whether you need recipes for entertaining, a quick pickle, or plans for curing meats, this book will have you coming back for more and more and more."—Nyanyika Banda, chef/owner of Martha’s Daughter, cookbook author, and food historian "As a lover of smoked fish and amazing sandwiches, I can say that Northern Waters Smokehaus is doing nothing short of a public service for us in Minnesota. Using the highest quality locally sourced ingredients, with each item crafted with great care and attention, Northern Waters checks every box. Their place is a must-stop for myself and family whenever we travel through Duluth, and I know this book will be treasured by many!"—Sean Sherman, author of The Sioux Chef’s Indigenous Kitchen and founder of The Sioux Chef, Owamni, NĀTIFS, and the Indigeous Food Lab "For hundreds of years in the mountains of Laos, Hmong people have been smoking fish and meats. Fire, smoke, salt, and time have been the elements that our people use to create simple and delicious foods. My soul deeply resonates with Northern Waters Smokehaus because even though I'm thousands of miles away from my parents’ homeland, I feel so close to home when I read this book. Food is a universal language we use to speak to each other regardless of where we come from and what we look like. Food is the common thread that connects our hearts together."—Yia Vang, chef/owner of Union Hmong Kitchen "Eric Goerdt is a talented chef who has written an inspiring book that covers much more than how to smoke fish. He makes me want to head into the kitchen and start cooking. Divided into four seasons, Smoke on the Waterfront offers seasonal recipes for fresh pasta, bread, tempting salads, and desserts."—Beatrice Ojakangas, author of Homemade: Finnish Rye, Feed Sack Fashion, and Other Simple Ingredients from My Life in Food "Listen, the food in here is great, and you’re going to surprise yourself with the amazing things you can make, but the true magic of Northern Waters Smokehaus has always been the people who work there. I’ve been seeing them come and eventually move on for over twenty years. Turns out, if you hire kind people and treat them with dignity, they help make your business better, improve products, foster a positive environment, and make customers realize that they are somewhere special. These recipes will get you there, but it’s love that made them, and if you can also put a little of your love in, I know you will make the magic too."—Alan Sparhawk, Northern Waters Smokehaus customer and musician

    Book SynopsisNamed one of The Best Cookbooks of 2021 by The New York Times“Excellent. . . . Thanks to McDade’s assured guidance, those curious about this understated pantry staple will have no trouble diving in. Salty and satisfying, these recipes hit the spot.”—Publishers Weekly TINNED FISH IS ONE OF THE WORLD’S GREAT INGREDIENTS: brilliantly versatile, harvested and preserved at the peak of its quality and flavor, more economical than fresh seafood will ever be, as healthy and nutrient-packed as food gets. Focusing on sustainable and easy-to-find anchovies, sardines, mackerel, shellfish, and more, here are 75 recipes that will change the way we think about and cook with tinned fish. Whether it’s creating an addictively delicious Spaghetti con le Sarde, transforming a pork roast with a mackerel-based “tonnato” sauce, elevating mac and cheese with crab, or digging into the simplest and best snack ever—anchovies, bread, and butter—cooking with tinned fish is pure magic.Trade Review“A comprehensive introduction to the original fast food—shelf-stable seafood packed in olive oil. With an eye toward convenience, sustainability and deliciousness, Mr. McDade guides readers through the world of canned seafood options by way of thoughtful recipes and helpful tips for what to look for and expect from each can.”—The New York Times “A must for anyone who has a can of seafood and a box of pasta in their cupboards, and potentially the definitive American cookbook on tinned fish.”—La Cucina Italiana “The Magic of Tinned Fish conjures extraordinarily delicious dishes. . . . The book is an enlightening and very useful compendium. . . . You’ll learn how to clean a salted anchovy; why you should only buy fish packed in oil, not water (much tastier); and why small fish, like anchovies and sardines, are better for the environment (they regenerate faster, in larger numbers, and contain less mercury than the bigger varieties). . . . You’ll discover the anticipatory pleasure of having a fresh new stash of versatile, creative, healthy, sustainable, and easy to prepare ingredients on your shelf, ready to use with the turn of a can-opener. But mostly, The Magic of Tinned Fish will help you learn to love your pantry again.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer “Tap[s] into the versatility and downright sophistication of tinned seafood. From the simplest applications . . . to po’ boys, mussel salads and savory dressings, the cookbook is full of details about each fish. We love the What’s In The Tin feature, which offers a mental picture of what to expect.—Dallas Morning News “Beautiful and informative.”—Montreal Gazette “Tinned fish isn’t only practical; it’s delicious. Chris McDade profiles the versatility of tinned fish that has turned this ardent fisherman into a fan.”—Tom Colicchio, Chef/Owner, Crafted Hospitality “Chef Chris McDade has successfully decoded the beauty of tinned fish, taking the reader on a flavor odyssey of tradition and preservation. This book’s thorough research and classic recipes are simply inspiring in their complex homage to this time-honored process.”—Stuart Brioza and Nicole Krasinski, Chefs/Owners, State Bird Provisions, The Progress, and The Anchovy Bar “Brooklyn chef McDade makes a strong case that tinned fish is the ultimate game-changing protein in his excellent debut, arguing that preserved fish ‘can be just as, if not more, versatile and delicious than their fresh counterparts.” French, Spanish, and U.S. influences inform the collection, which highlights all types of tinned seafood—from sardines and shellfish to squid and octopus—and how best to prepare each (some salted anchovies, for instance, need to first be soaked in cold water). The anchovy is showcased in a simple yet satisfying anchovies, bread, and butter snack, then moves to a ‘supporting role’ in a dish of grilled broccoli, pistachios, and Green Goddess dressing that offers a delightful punch with blended herbs and jalapeno. A celebratory presentation of sardines on a board suggests mixing cans of different-flavored sardines along with various complementary nibbles such as olives, almonds, potato chips, and spicy mustard, and breakfast gets its due with smoked trout and scrambled eggs on an everything bagel with horseradish. Meanwhile, a zesty celery and octopus salad makes a delicious case for branching outside one’s traditional tinned go-tos. Thanks to McDade’s assured guidance, those curious about this understated pantry staple will have no trouble diving in. Salty and satisfying, these recipes hit the spot.”—Publishers Weekly
