Americans today each consume an average of more than sixteen pounds of fish and shellfish annually, with seafood consumption rising at a yearly rate of 15%. For the health-conscious and flavor-conscious, wild Alaskan seafood is an ideal choice—light, naturally low in fat and yet high in omega-3 fatty acids, and succulent to the taste. Despite a sluggish national economy, the state’s catch remains in high demand.
In Wild Alaskan Seafood, twenty-five of America’s finest chefs—among them, four James Beard award winners: John Ash, Bradley Ogden, Holly Smith, and Allen Susser—share their favorite recipes using the Last Frontier’s wild, natural, and sustainable seafood. With full-color photographs of food and Alaskan locales throughout, this book is a beautiful and useful keepsake for anyone with a passion for the state’s incomparable catch, as well as all visitors to, and lovers of, the Last Frontier.
