This cookbook is from 1989, but it still has some good ideas. If you are looking for some tried and true recipes for Salmon and Dungeoness Crab, there are some in here.
Susan has a wonderful website that has much more modern and up to date recipes and a blog that covers the PNW area.
You can see the beginnings of a food movement starting here in 1989, with the preference to local ingredients, fresh flavors and colors and presentation. It has come a LONG way since then, but its like reading a good history book.
There are no photos in the cookbook. It is a must have if you live in the Pacific Northwest because she singles out the wonderful produce you can get locally.
There are little to no low fat recipes in this cookbook, but you can make some substitutes for the high fat ingredients, as well as modernizing some of the flavors. A good cookbook is one that has one great recipe, and a few that can inspire you to make up something of your own. This is a good cookbook by that definition, pick up a used copy for the shelf next to Julia. I guess thats why I have so many cookbooks......
