Product Description

Gordon Ramsay won his first Michelin star at the prodigious age of 27 and has since become one of the UK's best-known chefs. Here, he turns his attention to the food that excites him most: fish and shellfish. Ramsay aims his advice at home cooks, especially those who are not used to preparing seafood, and he begins with an entire section on how to choose the freshest specimens. Then, he proceeds to give a guide to filleting, skinning, trimming, preparing, marinating, flavoring and freezing all kinds of seafood. One hundred exciting recipes range from simple Salmon Fishcakes and Fish Pie to the more adventurous Crab Ravioli with Lemongrass Vinaigrette. This is a must for fish lovers everywhere.

Customer Reviews

passion for seafood is right on
Being a chef, I love to read books from other chefs around the world. Mr. Ramsay's boook is truly remarkable for the working chef. I am not sure I would reccomend it for the home chef, although the pictures are beautiful. If you love fish, then this is a must read, especially the soups and scallop recipies
