Simply Fish

Simply Fish: A Guide to Identifying, Buying and Eating Fish, by Jenny Baker.

More than a cookbook, Simply Fish is designed to help you find out more about fish, how to identify then and sort out their names; when and where to buy them; how much to by and what to ask the fishmonger, as well as explaining how to prepare them and giving you cooking ideas and recipes. It covers fish and shellfish that you will find at the fishmongers and also those fish that might be presented to you by an angler. In it are all the familiar fish you've known since your childhood, plus exotic fish imported from abroad and others caught round our casts which may be new to you. 

Featuring nearly a hundred fish and shellfish, Simply Fish describes each one in detail; how to buy it, how to prepare it, and of course, how to cook it - with internationally inspired recipes and cooking ideas.

With chapters on fish from A to Z, fish medley, sauces, cooking methods and techniques as well as a guide to buying fish.
