This is a really good book that explains the differences between species of fish: Oily and lean fish, strong and mild, firm and flaky. It gives descriptions on how types of fish will taste and the recommended cooking methods, along with Nutrition Information for the recipes. The recipes themselves are easy to follow and the book is filled with color photographs.

I ordered this for a fisherman/wonderful cook who cooks his catch in grand style. I was a bit worried as to the contents because he is such an experienced cooker of sea products..
When the gift was presented and opened, my fisherman friend immediately ignored all other activity and dove between the pages of The Saltwater Cookbook.
His enthusiasm as he pointed out methods, sauces and formulae that he was not familiar with was gratifying.
It's a great book!

Love it! The book teaches you about all the different ocean fish and shellfish, which is really nice. Plus you get some great easy recipes. A must have for people that do not know a lot about ocean fish or shellfish.

I pull out this book whenever I need to refer to how to cook a certain fish. I think it's a great book for anyone new to cooking seafood. The recipes are all fantastic and use simple, natural ingredients. Most Americans could benefit from eating much more fish, and this great cookbook might help them do just that!

Very limited coverage---more gloss than substance. If minus ratings were offered I'd use a minus ten unless they had a minus 1000.
