"A wide-ranging, thorough, breezily written guide to oysters as
cuisine" ("Boston Globe"), "A Geography of Oysters "is the complete
guide to understanding, serving, and savoring one of North
America's most delicious foods--an Amazon Best of the Year 2007
selection.
In this passionate, playful, and indispensable guide, oyster
aficionado Rowan Jacobsen takes readers on a delectable tour of the
oysters of North America. Region by region, he describes each
oyster's appearance, flavor, origin, and availability, as well as
explaining how oysters grow, how to shuck them without losing a
finger, how to pair them with wine (not to mention beer), and why
they're one of the few farmed seafoods that are good for the earth
as well as good for you. Packed with fabulous recipes, maps, and
photos, plus lists of top oyster restaurants, producers, and
festivals, "A Geography of Oysters "is both delightful reading and
the guide that oyster lovers of all kinds have been waiting
for.
