Fish Grilled and Smoked

Description

There are at least 20,000 species of fish in the oceans, rivers, and streams of the world. In Fish Grilled & Smoked, master fisherman and chef John Manikowski teaches seafood lovers 150 succulent ways to cook just about anything that swims. Manikowski lists which species of fish are best for smoking: bluefish, yellowtail, whitefish, chub, herring, and lake trout. As an avid outdoorsman and seafood aficionado, Manikowski is always inventing new and flavourful ways to prepare fish. This cookbook includes his innovative "soft smoke" method, suitable for any outdoor grill, which uses dried corn to give the fish a sweet flavour. Seafood lovers will also savour the "wild cuisine" recipes Manikowski developed in the woods: Striped Bass with Cattail Shoots and Morels, Grilled Butterflied Trout, and Grilled Small-mouth Bass Wrapped in Corn Husks. Plus, Manikowski supplies recipes for fish-friendly condiments, sauces, salsas, side dishes, and desserts -he even suggests which type of wine and beer goes best with his dishes. Not only does fish make a delicious meal, it makes a healthy meal. Healthy food has never been richer or more flavourful than this!

The late John Manikowski, author of Fish Grilled & Smoked and Wild Fish & Game Cookbook, was born in northern Minnesota and began to hunt and fish when he was twelve. He was a partner in two popular restaurants that specialized in game -- Konkapot in Mill River, Massachusetts, and Charleston in Hudson, New York. His illustrations have been shown in galleries throughout the United States and have appeared in Fly Rod & Reel and Field & Stream. He wrote for several local newspapers and magazines about fishing, hunting, and the outdoors.
