Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Sesame-salmon strips

    • mharriman on May 30, 2024

      I altered the recipe a tad and combined it with my Weight Watchers In No Time Cookbook recipe. The latter one includes grated ginger root in the salmon sauce and includes an arugula greens base tossed in soy sauce, sesame oil, & ginger dressing. The sesame salmon strips are served on top. Great lighter dinner meal. Went well with jasmine rice on the side. Very flavorful.

  • New potato and clam salad

    • memphiseat on July 05, 2024

      The five pound bag of clams I get from Costco is two meals for me and my husband, and after making some version of steamed clams I'm always looking for something interesting to use up the rest. I've been making a lot of dinner salads due to the heat and this one was really nice. I've got a full herb garden which made the dressing extra fresh tasting.

  • Baked salmon with scallion-potato topping

    • susankay on March 23, 2022

      Excellent dish. Perfect for company. Wonderful flavor and beautiful, too!

  • Lemony sautéed flounder

    • memphiseat on May 14, 2024

      Classic recipe that is really delicious and healthy. Some of my older cookbooks I don't cook from that often anymore, but this book I keep coming back to.

Publishers Text

We all know that fish offers us one of the most important low-fat sources of dietary protein available. But behind this significant fact lies a startling truth: most of us think cooking fish is an arduous, complicated endeavor requiring special skills. Not true, declares Jane Brody, the New York Times Personal Health columnist and nutrition expert. Now Brody, author of the landmark bestseller Jane Brody's Nutrition Book, has produced a wonderful guide to seafood combined with a collection of delicious, simple-to-follow, healthful recipes that prove that cooking with fish is easier than you think.

Part One is a comprehensive overview of seafood, including chapters on how to select, clean, fillet, and store fish; basic seafood cooking techniques; a full discussion of seafood safety; a comprehensive nutrition chart; and the up-to-date health benefits of adding fish to your diet.

Part Two is a collection of more than 230 recipes from appetizers and soups to salads and main courses, including special sections on grilling and microwaving. Inside you'll find such scrumptious dishes as:
* Shrimp and Onion Pizza
* Orzo with Clams
* Fish Tacos with Cilantro Pesto
* Oven-Steamed Bass with Crisp Vegetables
* Grilled Salmon with Fennel
* Sweet Pepper Fish Cakes
* Lobster and Shrimp Salad in Basil Buttermilk
