If you only have one seafood cook, this should be the one. Beside outstanding recipes, the care for fish products is very detailed. A good addition to my cookbook collection.
Best recipes for Fish and Seafood

I love to cook! I always thought that fish prepared simply was best. This Loomis book really turned around my experience. She takes you on tour through areas where fish is caught and cooked. We get the recipes of fisherman (they know how to do this right) and also some incredible sauce recipes. I love Sauce Piquant with Redfish. Try it and see if you don't agree. I turn to this book so often for advice and recipes. It's a must have if you want to do Seafood right.
