The abundance of seafood available from the northwest Gulf of Mexico includes hundreds of delicious species that are often overlooked by consumers. Celebrating this regional bounty, Texas Seafood showcases the expertise of longtime fishmongers and chefs PJ and "Apple Srimart" Stoops. Readers will find familiar fish like Red Snapper along with dozens of little-known finfish and invertebrates, including tunas, mackerels, rays, and skates, as well as bivalves, shrimps, crabs, and other varieties, many of which are considered "bycatch" (seafood that a fisher didn't intend to catch), but that are no more difficult to prepare and just as delicious as those commonly found at your local supermarket. The Stoopses provide a complete primer on sourcing these wild-caught delicacies, with fascinating details about habitats and life cycles as well as practical advice on how to discern quality. Texas Seafood concludes with simple, delectable recipes, many infused with the flavors of Apple's Thai heritage. Dishes such as Steamed Curried Crab, Crispy White Shrimp, Escolar on a Grill with Green Mango Salad, Cast-Iron-Roasted Shortfin Mako Shark with Rio Grande Grapefruit, and Chicken-Fried Ribbonfish are just a few ways to savor the best of the Gulf.

Over 50 original tried and tested recipes which include Paella, Mackerel Escabeche, Seafood Tagine, Crispy Squid, Lobster and many more! Beautiful water colour illustrations by Alice Cleary. Seasonal, sustainable and enjoyable to cook recipes for fish.

"Part treatise, part miscellany, unfailingly entertaining."
"-The New York Times"
"A small pearl of a book . . . a great tale of the growth of a modern city as seen through the rise and fall of the lowly oyster."
"-Rocky Mountain News"
Award-winning author Mark Kurlansky tells the remarkable story of New York by following the trajectory of one of its most fascinating inhabitants-the oyster.
For centuries New York was famous for this particular shellfish, which until the early 1900s played such a dominant a role in the city's life that the abundant bivalves were Gotham's most celebrated export, a staple food for all classes, and a natural filtration system for the city's congested waterways.
Filled with cultural, historical, and culinary insight-along with historic recipes, maps, drawings, and photos-this dynamic narrative sweeps readers from the seventeenth-century founding of New York to the death of its oyster beds and the rise of America's environmentalist movement, from the oyster cellars of the rough-and-tumble Five Points slums to Manhattan's Gilded Age dining chambers. With "The Big Oyster," Mark Kurlansky serves up history at its most engrossing, entertaining, and delicious.
"Suffused with [Kurlansky's] pleasure in exploring the city across ground that hasn't already been covered with other writers' footprints."
-"Los Angeles Times Book Review"
"Fascinating stuff . . . [Kurlansky] has a keen eye for odd facts and natural detail."
-"The Wall Street Journal"
"Kurlansky packs his breezy book with terrific anecdotes."
-"Entertainment Weekly"
"Magnificent . . . a towering accomplishment."

Die lae-koolhidraat dieet is nou een van die gewildste vorme van dieet. Selfs op die gebied van uithouvermoësport is die paleo-dieet 'n belangrike onderwerp.

Maar wat is die werklike voordeel van die paleo-dieet?

Die liggaam sit oortollige energie om in vet.

Baie paleo-dieetkundiges beweer dat die omskakeling van koolhidrate in 'n stof soos suiker bloedsuikervlakke verhoog.

Om dit weer te verminder, vervaardig die menslike liggaam insulien, wat die verbranding van vet verminder. Terselfdertyd keer die gevoel van honger terug.

Die beginsel van Paleo is: As die hoë-koolhidraat dieet gestaak word, gebruik die liggaam ook meer vet.
