A mind-blowing masterpiece from one of the most impressive chefs of a
generation. Jamie Oliver
In The Whole Fish Cookbook, groundbreaking seafood chef Josh Niland
reveals a completely new way to think about all aspects of fish
cookery. From sourcing and butchering to dry ageing and curing, it
challenges everything we thought we knew about the subject and invites
readers to see fish for what it really is - an amazing, complex source
of protein that can and should be treated with exactly the same
nose-to-tail reverence as meat.
It features more than 60 recipes for dozens of fish species ranging
from Smoked Marlin Ham Caesar Salad, Fish Cassoulet and Roast Fish Bone
Marrow to - essentially - The Perfect Fish and Chips. Many of us would
like to eat more fish but worry about the environmental impact and
often end up cooking the same old salmon fillet on repeat. The Whole
Fish Cookbook will soon have you embracing new types and will change
the way you buy, cook and eat fish.
There is so much more to a fish than just the fillet, and it is indeed
true what they say about there being more than just a handful of fish
in the sea.
Food critic turned farmer and sustainable seafood activist Matthew
Evans, along with his two best chef mates, shows us how seafood
should be cooked. Simple recipes that demystify everything from
abalone to sea urchin, snapper to octopus, as well as inspiration
if you want to catch your own dinner rather than head to the
fishmongers. This is all about the taste of real food fresh from
the sea, cooked with care and respect for the seafood populations
in your part of the world.
Go ahead. Feel smug. With Star Fish in your hands, there will no
longer be anything fishy about the seafood meals you produce. In
fact, the lip-smackingly good recipes in this book use only the top
ten most sustainable fish off the SASSI (SA Sustainable Seafood
Initiative) green list. In this surprisingly funny, surprisingly
fascinating read, author Daisy Jones takes you on an epic road trip
to meet the farmers, conservationists, fishermen and scientists who
will protect the top ten in the years to come. You’ll visit a
vloeking oyster farmer in a wasteland on the West Coast and a
high-heeled SASSI scientist. You’ll meet an abundantly bearded
kabeljou farmer in Paternoster, a third-generation treknetter in
Fish Hoek and an Irish-accented aquaculturist in East London. Daisy
has conducted hours of interviews on boats, rafts and on farms to
find out why her top ten are not in danger of overfishing and why
catching them does no damage to the environment. The chapters on
each fish, and the paintings and illustrations that accompany them,
will secure the top ten in your memory - a phenomenon sure to come
in handy when you shop or dine out sans SASSI checklist. The
recipes at the end of each chapter, gorgeously photographed by
Craig Fraser, tempt those of us in the habit of opting for white
linefish and prawns to try something meatier (yellowtail), oilier
(sardines) or slurpier (mussels). A chart at the end of the book
provides green alternatives to orange- and red-listed fish - both
local and overseas varieties. There’s a word on SASSI, a word on
the MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) and a word on the state of our
oceans. It’s an adventure, switching to green fish. And it’s the
right thing to do.

Humans everywhere have always been fascinated by octopuses, squid,
and cuttlefish, known biologically as cephalopods. They evolved
hundreds of millions of years ago and are related to molluscs such
as mussels and snails. They can grow to an enormous size with eyes
as big as footballs, but they still live for only a couple of
years. They mate once in their lifetime and die shortly after. They
have blue blood and three hearts and they can shoot out jet-black
ink. They have a brain and have behaviours that could be
interpreted as signs of intelligence, even though more than half of
their brain is distributed in their arms. They are colour blind,
but they can change the colour of their skin in a flash. They are
masters of disguise and are able to alter the texture of their skin
and the patterns displayed on it at lighting speed. They can also
'taste' using the suckers on their arms. They can move extremely
fast thanks to a jet-propulsion system built into their body
cavity. Although they are soft-bodied and look vulnerable,
cephalopods are formidable predators. Octopuses have arms that are
so strong that they can exert a force equal to hundreds of times
their own body weight. Squid and cuttlefish can shoot out a
tentacle to capture prey at the speed of a javelin thrown by an
expert athlete. Cephalopods are, however, so much more than just
fascinating creatures with strange physical characteristics. They
are a nutritious, delicious protein source that has found a place
for thousands of years in many food cultures around the world. As
squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses are native to virtually all parts
of the ocean, they are an excellent and available alternative to
meat from terrestrial animals. This book is written to promote the
overall place of cephalopods in home kitchens and to inspire the
uninitiated to add them to their diet. It describes the many facets
of their anatomy that play a central role in their potential use as
healthy, diverse, and interesting food sources, with a particular
emphasis on their taste and texture. By way of an assortment of
recipes, the authors hope to dispel the myth that it is difficult
to prepare delicious dishes using squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses.
In addition, there are contributions to the on-going discussions
about how marine resources can be exploited more responsibly in a
sustainable manner. Ole G. Mouritsen is a professor of
gastrophysics and culinary food innovation at the University of
Copenhagen,president of the Danish Gastronomical Academy, and
director of the Danish national research and communication centre
Taste for Life. Klavs Styrbaek is a chef and leader of the
gastronomic enterprise STYRBAEKS, which includes a gourmet
restaurant, a cooking school, a catering service, and a product
development branch.
