Book Reviews of The Summer Shack Cookbook: The Complete Guide to Shore Food

Book Review: Great cookbook
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been a fan of Jasper White's for many years, but I held off ordering this book because I was afraid it would be full of lobster recipes. I realized long ago that I was not going to pay the premimun lobster demands in the south, so why buy another book heavy on lobster. Well, I was wrong! This is a terrific book of seafood recipes and side dish ideas too. The thing I liked best is that all the food is very casual, not the fancy stuff that looks great on the cover but that you'll never cook. The fish recipes offer ideas for substitutions if the ideal fish isn't in season or region.

Summary of The Summer Shack Cookbook: The Complete Guide to Shore Food

The flavors and foods of summer in your kitchen all year long.

Roll up your sleeves; pile up your plate with boiled shrimp, steamed mussels, and fried clams; and enjoy the tastes of summer with New England's premier seafood expert Jasper White, the chef and owner of the four Summer Shack restaurants.

In this collection of over 200 easy-to-make seafood dishes such as Caribbean Callaloo, Lobster Rolls, and Portuguese Fisherman's Stew, along with classics like Fried Chicken and Strawberry Pie, White shows you how to prepare summertime favorites that bring the style, fun, and flavors of the shore to your table all year long—without any fuss. Whether you're entertaining friends for a casual meal or relaxing on a family vacation, you'll find meals that are as simple to make as they are to enjoy. With an illustrated guide to basics like shucking clams, eating lobster, and boning a bluefish, The Summer Shack Cookbook will be transporting even the most landlocked cooks to the shore in no time. 24 pages of color illustrations; 50 drawings.
