A Seafood Celebration

A great book for restaurant operations. All of the recipes work. Also, great for giving service staff information about the varities of fish. I give it out to chefs as a reference book.

Seafood - Simple and Sublime

Sheryl and Mel London have done justice to fish! This is a must have cookbook for every chef. There are especially good sections on how to buy, prepare and cook fish in easy to follow and practical prose.In addition to the selection and preparation of the ocean's bounty the book contains superb recipes for a simple meal - or an extravagant seafood feast. Favorites I have from the book include Cacciucco Alla Livornese, a spicy fish stew derived from an old Turkish recipe and Sauteed scallops with Ginger, red pepper and chives.An excellent resource and a must have for every modern home cook.
