Fish and Shellfish Grilled and Smoked or Ultimate Smoothies

Fish and Shellfish, Grilled and Smoked: 300 Foolproof Recipes for Everything from Amberjack to Whitefish, Plus Really Good Rubs, Marvelous Marinades, Sassy Sauces, and Sumptous Sides

Author: Karen Adler

With the increasing availability of delicious seafood year-round, fresh fish and shellfish are a regular part of nutritious menus. In their new cookbook Fish & Shellfish, Grilled & Smoked, grill experts Karen Adler and Judith M. Fertig demonstrate just how easy it is to make delicious, perfectly grilled or smoked fish and shellfish. They start by covering all the basics of equipment, techniques, and fish substitution guidelines, then provide easy-to-follow recipes as simple as Balsamic Smoked Haddock or Tequila-Lime Grilled Shrimp, and as elegant as Oak-Planked Salmon Charmoula or Thai-Style Stir-Grilled Snapper in Lemongrass Marinade. Adler and Fertig round out their collection of recipes with everything you need to complete a perfect meal: marinades, rubs, relishes, and sauces, as well as side dishes made both on and off the grill.

Library Journal

Adler (Best Little Grilling Cookbook) and Fertig (Prairie Home Cooking), coauthors of an earlier grilling and smoking cookbook, live in Kansas City, MO, which they describe as the "melting pot of barbecue." Here they offer dozens of recipes inspired by a wide range of cuisines, from Cider-Marinated Boston Bluefish to Grilled Seafood Paella to Smoked Asian Leaf-Wrapped Snapper. There's also a large section devoted to "Everything Else You Need": rubs and marinades, salsas and relishes, and side dishes. The grilling recipes outnumber the smoking ones, and indeed most backyard cooks are more likely to turn to the former first, but the easy, varied recipes for using a smoker as well as the focus on fish and shellfish help set this book apart from the myriad others on outdoor cookery.
