Organized in an easy-reference, A-Z format, Fish gives you the culinary lowdown on seventy kinds of fish and shellfish commonly found in American supermarkets and fish stores., From New York Times bestselling author Mark Bittman, Fish: The Complete Guide to Buying and Cooking is a book that simplifies, once and for all, the process of preparing fish. Organized in an easy-reference, A-Z format, Fish gives you the culinary lowdown on seventy kinds of fish and shellfish commonly found in American supermarkets and fish stores. Each entry in Bittman's book describes how the fish is sold (fillets, steaks, whole, salted), other names it goes by, how the fish should look, and buying tips. Fish begins with general guidelines on how to store, prepare, and cook fish, whether sautéing, frying, grilling, or smoking, and you will find easy-to-follow illustrations of such important basics as how to gut and fillet a fish. Fish also includes up-to-the-minute information on the health benefits of fish in our diet. In addition, there are more than five hundred recipes and variations, all of which use low-fat, high-flavor ingredients to accent the intrinsic natures of the individual fish rather than mask them. And the vast majority of the recipes are ready in less than thirty minutes!, Winner of the International Association of Culinary Professionals/Julia Child Cookbook Award If you find cooking fish a daunting undertaking, Fish: The Complete Guide to Buying and Cooking is the book for you.

  • Has a lot of recipes for a variety of fish

    I didn't buy this for learning how to buy fish at the market. I bought this for the recipes for different types of fish & seafood. Wish it had an area for dried fish or smoked fish but still a good buy.
