Seafood is always a popular choice when eating out, but many people shy away from preparing fish recipes at home. Aldo Zilli, demystifies this delicious and healthy cuisine, and demonstrates how to prepare seafood simply but with stunning results. The book is divided into sections by type of fish – White Fish (flat and round); Oily Fish; Exotics and Specialities; and Shellfish (including crustaceans and molluscs) – and each chapter opens with a beautifully illustrated fish identification guide, complete with information on the fish featured. Fish preparation techniques are demonstrated with clear step-by-step photography and each is accompanied by a delicious recipe, allowing the reader to put their new-found skills to good use. Alternative fish are listed, so that the reader can adapt the recipe as they wish. With over 100 recipes to choose from, including Pan-fried Red Snapper wrapped in Grilled Zucchini, Charbroiled Lobster in Oriental Herbs and Sautéed Scallops on Broad Bean Mash, there’s a dish to suit every occasion and taste. There’s even a section on speciality dishes, such as sushi and caviar.
