No matches found.‘Fish Without a Doubt'
Book of the Month
Cookbooks that dub themselves "essential" usually aren't.
But Rick Moonen an Roy Finamore's "Fish Without a Doubt" is a splendid exception. That's because the authors have managed to produce a cookbook that not only lives up to its title, but is written for the way real people cook.
The book's "Basics" section alone is worth the price. It offers cooking techniques, flavor pairings, how to battle the fishy smell in your kitchen, and a brilliant photo-heavy section prepping each item for cooking (such as cleaning soft-shell crabs).
The rest of the book, which recently was named the first of Gourmet magazine's monthly Cook Book Club selections, is organized by cooking techniques and uses, such as with pasta and rice or in chowders.
