2.) Australian Fish and Seafood Cookbook - The ultimate kitchen companion – Written by John Susman, Anthony Huckstep, Sarah Swan and Stephen Hodges (Murdoch Books 2016 – Available on Amazon)
“The bible for seafood. The only book you'll ever need on the topic.” Neil Perry
With stunning photography of recipes and locations, a wealth of useful seafood information and Aussie-style recipes, this could be the most well-used coffee table cookbook bookworms will own. For the rest of the world, Australia may be a world away, but the Land of Oz shares many overlapping species of fish, and local fish can always be substituted in the multitude of recipes.
Written by the seafood icons of Australia – the purveyor (John Susman), the chef (Stephen Hodges), the restaurant reviewer (Anthony Huckstep) and the recipe creator and chef from Rockpool (Sarah Swan), this landmark publication contains all one needs to know about selecting and preparing more than 60 types of fish and seafood, including catching methods, notes on sustainability, flavor profiles, and cooking guidelines.
Who could resist Deep Fried Prawns with Aioli and Chili Salt, a Ling Burger perhaps, or the secrets behind a truly amazing Australian Fish and Chips?
More than 130 recipes showcase the delicious potential of the vast array of Australian seafood, and clear step-by-step photography illustrating the key techniques takes all the guesswork out of cooking seafood at home.
This is a resource to which most home chefs will find themselves continuously returning.
