The best book ever written on determining quality, determining freshness, purchasing, selecting, keeping, preparing, filleting, cooking and serving fish. He is not afraid to tackle the more uncommon fish, too.Hands down - Don't look elsewhere. I have many books in fish and this is the bible. High Quality. Well edited.If you like fish, a bit ........and want to know more, get this book. It will change your eating habits forever.Can be used by experienced professional chefs - as well as ordinary guys who cook, like me.

The book is great. Beautiful layout, pictures and mouthwatering recipes.The only problem is the book arrived with the spine coming loose...

A fantastic fish recipe book. My son is quite an advanced cook and loves cooking fish dishes. He said he found a lot of helpful tips in this cook book.

This was a gift to someone. It is the best fish recipe book I know.

Great cookbook, we are going to Cornwall in a few weeks and have scheduled a cooking class at his school. Have tried a few recipes very tasty .Easy to follow and prepare.

Great fish cook book

I bought this book as a gift with the hopes that it offered enough instructions on how to fillet and prepare fish for an enthusiastic novice to also enjoy. The level of detail in the beginning on simply the preparation of all the different varieties of fish makes it worth purchasing alone, the numerous recipes are a welcome bonus. Some of the recipes are a little complicated, and some recipes don't have any photos - the only reasons why I didn't give 5-stars, but overall it's pretty great. Nice hardcover/dustcover and easy pages to prop open in the kitchen.

Great book! Hugely informative and recipes to give the everyday cook the confidence to put more fish on the table.

Good detailed book with beautiful photos a techniquesGood bookto have in your library

Fish is a major part of my diet, but after getting a bit bored with my overused fish recipes, I decided to buy a fish cookbook. I did however, not know that it was going to be that hard!!! I mainly eat fish from the North-Atlantic, but most cookbooks seem to focus mainly on fish living in warmer waters, salmon and other farmed fish, or the recipes are just way too much disguising the taste of the fish. I find that Rick Stein's cookbook contains more recipes containing fish from the waters around the UK and that are easily sourced here, plus that for each recipe he has captured recommended substitutes in case you cannot get hold of the fish in the recipe. The recipes are easy to follow and they are normal, in the sense that most of the contain ingredients that you can get in your local grocery store. Finally, in the beginning of the book there is a huge section about the different fish types and how to prepare them, with illustrations. Love it!

This is a fantastic Fish and Shellfish Book... from advice on buying fish / shellfish (what to look for). How to fillet, bone etc... I have always shied away from buying Ray or Monkfish or Gurnard etc as I did not have a clue on how to prepare them but now I do.... This Book gives step by step clear instructions accompanied by step by step pictures on the prepararation of more fish and shellfish than I have ever heard of, and this together with the illustrated recipes makes it a book I would thoroughly recommend to all lovers of seafood...
