IMM Lifestyle Books Fishy Fishy Cookbook
Book SynopsisFishy Fishy is a relaxed, informal seafood brasserie in Brighton that was the brainchild of three close friends: James Ginzler, Dermot O'Leary and Paul Shovlin. They share a passion for good food, but more importantly food that has been locally sourced and is in season. They work closely with suppliers to make sure the fish they serve is caught in the least wasteful way which can mean line-caught fish, pot-caught seafood or fish caught in gill nets with big holes in them so they only catch the larger fish and let the small ones through. They only serve fish and seafood when it is in season - that's why there's no cod on the menu in the summer or lobster in the winter. All their passion and expertise is contained in this lovely new cookbook which has over 90 recipes, as well as fascinating fish facts and plenty of advice on how to prepare and cook fish. With chapters on Starters, Barbecue & Alfresco Eating, Everyday Fish & Shellfish, Special Occasions, Sauces, Side Dishes & Desserts, there is plenty of inspiration for cooks of all levels. More than just a restaurant cookbook, this is a wonderful collection of recipes as well as a timely look at the ways we should be sourcing and eating fish.

Grub Street Publishing The Fish Store
Book SynopsisWhen her sons inherited their father's childhood home in a Cornish fishing village, once a commercial building for storing and packing pilchards, Lindsey Bareham thought it would be a nice idea to record some of the recipes and memories of this extraordinary place. It started as a notebook for her sons' eyes only, with lists of favourite ways of cooking mackerel, monkfish and sole and how to make mayonnaise to go with the gift of a handsome crab or crayfish, but then it took on its own momentum and became this very special book, full of recollections and anecdotes and fabulous holiday food. Although the setting is of course English, Bareham's recipes take in influences from all over the world, including Portugal (Portuguese Cabbage Soup with Rosemary Bruschetta), Italy (Red Mullet Wrapped in Parma Ham with Garlic and Rosemary) and Turkey (Spiced Aubergine Salad with Cumin). Nor, despite the location, are her recipes completely devoted to matters piscine. Chapters on eggs, chicken, lamb, vegetables and, of course, puddings, sit alongside a wonderful collection of recipes for fish of all kinds.

Kitchen Press The Seafood Shack: Food & Tales from Ullapool
Book SynopsisWinner of 2021 National Geographic Traveller Reader Award for 'Best Food & Travel Book' Shortlisted for the Guild of Food Writers First Book and Single Subject Book Awards 2021 Gourmand Cookbook Award Winner 2020 In 2016 two locals, frustrated at the lack of opportunities to eat the seafood landed in Ullapool, started a seafood shack on the harbour of the North West Highlands town. Serving up whatever their fishermen friends brought them every day, Kirsty Scobie and Fenella Renwick’s crowd funded project was an instant success and a new book, to be published in November, brings this to life. In their first book, Kirsty and Fenella tell the story of Ullapool’s Seafood Shack and bring together the recipes for the fresh, vibrant, ballsy dishes that have made The Seafood Shack such a Scottish treasure: from their famed Haddock & Pesto Wrap and the super-luxe Lobster Mac & Cheese to incredible super-local delicacies like Spiney Popcorn. The Seafood Shack was born out of a conversation between Kirsty and Fenella out at sea with their fishermen partners. Ullapool has around twelve local boats fishing in the clear, icy waters of The Minch: five prawn trawlers and seven inshore creel boats, with a further two crabbing boats coming in each week and ten or so white fish boats landing regularly. The vast majority of this huge variety of seafood landing daily was then transferred straight onto the back of a lorry, making it difficult to source it locally. Eager to keep a little fresh seafood for their hometown, Kirsty and Fenella opened up The Seafood Shack. The shack swiftly went onto win recognition, winning the BBC Food & Farming Award for Best Street food or Takeaway in 2017 and hosting visits from the likes of Mary Berry and Albert Roux. Kirsty says: “Many tonnes of seafood are caught in our Scottish seas and then transported straight out of Ullapool. We wanted to play a part in keeping some of our seafood local and so the Seafood Shack was born. What we really love now is being behind the hatches, cooking away and chatting to our customers as they devour a haddock wrap or peel open some fresh buttery langoustines. The book tells this story and shares our approach. What makes the Shack so wonderful to us is its relaxed feel and we don’t have to be stuck in a kitchen behind closed doors, we can be involved in every aspect. The food we cook is simple, quick but most importantly fresh and delicious.” Punctuated by the voices of local fishermen, the book celebrates the fishing industry that has been the beating heart of Ullapool’s village life for 230 years. With both Fenella and Kirsty’s partners actively involved in fishing, The Seafood Shack also reflects the debate around sustainable fishing. Fenella says: “The people behind our seafood are a huge part of our story: from Josh’s langoustines and lobsters, Gary’s hand-dived scallops and Stephen’s white fish to the team at our local smokehouse or Joe our oyster producer. These amazing people have been a massive part of our success: at the end of the day we’re not amazing chefs, we’re just two girls who love to cook and having such fantastic and fresh produce is what makes the Shack work.” The Seafood Shack provides over 80 down to earth recipes and tips for cooking white fish, smoked fish and shellfish. Kirsty and Fenella’s work on the book was recognised when they were announced as winners of the Jane Grigson Trust Award for New Writers earlier this year.Trade ReviewThe Seafood Shack in the Scottish Highlands is serious about high quality and sustainable seafood. * The London Evening Standard *'A charming, soulful book, capturing the essence of eating locally and sustainably by bringing life to the fishing community of Ullapool' * Guild of Food Writers *

Cedar Lane Press Gulf Coast Oysters: Classic & Modern Recipes of a
Book SynopsisIt’s been said Gulf Coast oysters have the cleanest taste of any oyster: “…it tastes of the sea and not much else, and for that reason they should be the oysters against which all others should be measured.” Gulf Coast Oysters: Classic & Modern Recipes for a Southern Renaissance is the latest cookbook from acclaimed and award-winning chef, Irv Miller. Beautifully photographed and replete with mouth-watering recipes, Gulf Coast Oysters is a joyful and thorough exploration of Gulf oyster culture that honors the many oyster classics of the Gulf foodways while also putting a fresh, modern spin on preparing “panhandle pearls.” Going beyond its delicious recipes and stunning photos, Gulf Coast Oysters also focuses on preserving the Gulf’s cross-cultural, Southern traditions and a goal of creating new interest in seafood-sustainable products. Miller’s years of hands-on experience of modernizing the way the Florida Panhandle thinks about food, as well as his support of sustainable food-producing practices, has provided him the unique and credentialed perspective for telling the story of the ever-changing food scene along the Gulf Coast. Whether you’re a native of the Gulf Coast, a passionate epicurean, or simply part of the growing population of oyster fans that’s booming from coast-to-coast, Gulf Coast Oysters: Classic & Modern Recipes for a Southern Renaissance is an bountiful book of diverse Gulf oyster recipes, striking photography, and an engaging look at the culture surrounding the ancient mollusk’s place on Gulf coast.Trade Review"His exploration of Gulf Coast oysters should prove to be both mouthwatering and enlightening to oyster lovers everywhere." * Jason Burnett, Oyster-Obsession.com *"If it was a brave person that first ate an oyster surely they were without the friendly and passionately well-informed company Irv Miller provides in his newest book! His devotion for the waters and oysters of the American Gulf Coast make this a fitting companion on anyone's bookshelf to Rowan Jacobsen's fine works on these complexly flavored, nearly infinitely varying and beautiful mollusks." * Norman Van Aken, award-winning Chef and Author *"Chef Irv Miller brings passion to the oyster renaissance in the Gulf of Mexico. This is a labor of love..." * Bill Walton, a.k.a "Dr. Oyster," Auburn University Shellfish Lab *"As a die-hard oyster lover and new convert to Gulf-coast seafood, I devoured Irv Miller's smart, engaging look at oysters." * Erin Byers Murray, author of Shucked: Life on a New England Oyster Farm *"The southern oyster renaissance is real, and you kind of have to see it—and taste it—to believe it. As a New Yorker, I didn't know what I was missing out on until I went down to Alabama, Louisiana, and Georgia for myself. This book successfully captures that personal feeling of discovering, or rediscovering Gulf oysters for the first time. Miller's approach to oyster appreciation is thoughtful and imaginative. Although the culinary spotlight is squarely on Gulf oysters, his recipes are applicable to any oyster region. It's a labor of love that I'm pleased to have on my oyster bookshelf." * Julie Qiu, renowned Oyster enthusiast and creator of In a Half Shell.com *"...beautiful and very well done." * Jeremiah Tower *"The Gulf oyster's revival is one of the great culinary stories of our time, and there's no one better to tell it than Irv Miller, who has been on the front lines all along. Gulf Coast Oysters will dazzle you, enlighten you, and inspire you. And it will make you very, very hungry." * Rowan Jacobsen, author of The Essential Oyster *"For the past several decades, Irv Miller has championed local, Gulf of Mexico seafood, particularly oysters from the Gulf Coast. In Gulf Coast Oysters Irv continues in this role. He has masterfully highlighted the heretofore underappreciated diversity among our coastal varieties of wild and, now, farmed oysters. This important work could be lauded for this alone, however woven within the stories of our local oysters and the people who produce them is a delightful and creative collection of oyster recipes. Some of these have Irv's twist on a traditional dish, others are completely new creations. All is beautifully photographed and a testament not only to Irv's culinary genius but also to his deep love for the Northern Gulf Coast." * Chris Nelson, Bon Secour Fisheries, Inc *Table of ContentsTable of Contents: Foreword: By Jason Burnett (Oyster Obsession) Foreword: By Bill Walton (Dr. Oyster) Introduction Chapter 1 –Drops, Mignonettes Mists, and Hot Sauce-(9) Chapter 2 – Ceviche, Crudo & Chilled Toppings (9) Chapter 3 – Soups, Gumbo and Stews (7) Chapter 4 – Pan and Deep Fried (13) Chapter 5 – Oysters on Fire (7) Chapter 6 – Broiled, Roasted and Stuffed (6) Chapter 7 – Oyster Pan Roasts, Pasta and Grits (6) Chapter 8 – New Crusted Classics: (7) Sidebars: 10 Profiles of Off-Bottom Gulf Oyster farms in Florida, Alabama, and Louisiana

Graphic Arts Center Publishing Co The Tutka Bay Lodge Cookbook: Coastal Cuisine
Book SynopsisIn personal stories, evocative photographs, and recipes that are purposefully simple and designed for the home cook, Chef Kirsten Dixon and her family share fresh, rustic cuisine offering friendship, communicating passion, and bringing comfort and delight to the table. This recipe collection represents the cuisine at Tutka Bay Lodge, the Dixons’ seaside lodge nestled within the curve of a quiet cove at the entrance to Tutka Bay, a deep seven-mile fjord in Kachemak Bay, Alaska. In oldworld tradition, Kirsten Dixon’s family works together to craft a lifestyle that centers around three themes: the natural world, their culinary lives, and living a life of adventure. The cookbook is organized by sections for breakfast, lunch, appetizers, dinner, and the Cooking School at Tutka Bay. Among the one hundred recipes are Brioche Doughnuts with Cider Black Currant Marmalade, Hot-Smoked Salmon Croquettes, Grilled Oysters with Salmon Bacon and Pernod, Braised Short Rib Ravioli, and Wild Berry Chocolate Shortcake. “Seafood is the star of our cuisine here, as it should be. We certainly serve our share of ocean-caught salmon throughout the entire summer season. Halibut, cod, rockfish, shrimp, and crab also are served nearly daily. We are never too far from the garden in our cooking and many of our recipes include fresh-picked herbs or vegetables that grow well in Alaska. In addition, the wild berries, herbs, mushrooms, and sea vegetables inspire us to remember where on the Earth we live and how lucky we are,” Kirsten says.Trade Review“Whenever I think of Kirsten Dixon and her beautiful Tutka Bay Lodge, I can't help but smile. It is a place infused with a sense of joy, discovery, and adventure—but after the bear viewing and whale watching, there is no greater treat than sitting down at her table and enjoying the deep simple deliciousness of Kirsten’s cooking and her daughter Mandy’s glorious baking. The recipes in this lovely book bring it all home, and we are the luckier for it.” -- Dani Shapiro“Tutka Bay is magic. The natural beauty of the place is (almost) enough to fulfill every sense. But then there’s Kirsten Dixon’s food. Every meal—from the morning muffins, breads and egg dishes to the salads and sandwiches to the wild salmon and halibut and crab at dinner— struck the perfect note. This is a collection of recipes that will appeal to every cook— those that have shared her home in Alaska and those who just dream of being there. The Tutka Bay Summer Paella—chock-full of Alaska’s best seafood— is a dish I will never forget. So happy to have this collection of recipes from such a talented chef and writer.” -- Kathy Gunst“As a writer, as soon as I read Kirsten Dixon’s tender instructions for the crab omelette, to fold the omelette over like a letter, I read the recipe twice and knew that letter was for me! And I wanted to read the whole book and eat the covers. “Tutka Bay is a magical place and its vivid spirit touches every dish in this delicious volume.” -- Ron Carlson“This is a beautiful book full of photographs and recipes from an enchanted land that few will have the chance to visit . . . how lucky for us that Kirsten and Mandy have taken the time to share their story. Reading this book is like having a seat at the Chef's Table . . . prepare to be inspired!” —Stephen Durfee, Pastry chef, Chef Instructor at the CIA Greystone, Chocolatier -- Stephen Durfee

Boulder Books The Old Man Is Me
Book SynopsisGrowing up can be both thrilling and treacherous in small-town Newfoundland, where a young person will experience the joys and struggles of life in ways that are unique to isolated, rural communities. Bruce Stagg grew up in the 1950s and 1960s in Catalina, a rural fishing community on Newfoundland and Labrador''s Bonavista Peninsula -- a time and place that inspired this collection of short stories. Stagg effortlessly captures the spirit of post-Confederation Newfoundland. Life was arduous, but also romantic; families were optimistic, but struggled to put food on the table. These are stories of a childhood spent on the wharf, by the seaside, and in detention. Of larger-than-life personalities in a small but vibrant town. Of deep grudges and lifelong friendships. With rich detail and remarkable characters, this is a delightful and insightful step back in time.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Octopuses, Squid & Cuttlefish: Seafood for Today
Book SynopsisHumans everywhere have always been fascinated by octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish, known biologically as cephalopods. They evolved hundreds of millions of years ago and are related to molluscs such as mussels and snails. They can grow to an enormous size with eyes as big as footballs, but they still live for only a couple of years. They mate once in their lifetime and die shortly after. They have blue blood and three hearts and they can shoot out jet-black ink. They have a brain and have behaviours that could be interpreted as signs of intelligence, even though more than half of their brain is distributed in their arms. They are colour blind, but they can change the colour of their skin in a flash. They are masters of disguise and are able to alter the texture of their skin and the patterns displayed on it at lighting speed. They can also ‘taste’ using the suckers on their arms. They can move extremely fast thanks to a jet-propulsion system built into their body cavity. Although they are soft-bodied and look vulnerable, cephalopods are formidable predators. Octopuses have arms that are so strong that they can exert a force equal to hundreds of times their own body weight. Squid and cuttlefish can shoot out a tentacle to capture prey at the speed of a javelin thrown by an expert athlete. Cephalopods are, however, so much more than just fascinating creatures with strange physical characteristics. They are a nutritious, delicious protein source that has found a place for thousands of years in many food cultures around the world. As squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses are native to virtually all parts of the ocean, they are an excellent and available alternative to meat from terrestrial animals. This book is written to promote the overall place of cephalopods in home kitchens and to inspire the uninitiated to add them to their diet. It describes the many facets of their anatomy that play a central role in their potential use as healthy, diverse, and interesting food sources, with a particular emphasis on their taste and texture. By way of an assortment of recipes, the authors hope to dispel the myth that it is difficult to prepare delicious dishes using squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses. In addition, there are contributions to the on-going discussions about how marine resources can be exploited more responsibly in a sustainable manner. Ole G.
