Sibir: My diet is 80-90% seafood and I wanted a cookbook that would help me expand my recipe repertoire and cover a wide variety of dishes. Foolproof Fish does not disappoint. Despite the title, there are also plenty of recipes for shrimp, crab, lobster, mussels, etc. Every recipe I’ve tried following so far has been accessible, easy to prepare, and with tasty results. There’s enough recipes and variety in here that I feel like this is the only definitive seafood cookbook I need. The beginning pages provide a thorough lesson on the types of fish, how to look for fresh fish, how to store them, and how to prepare them for cooking. The layout of the book itself is great, with the photo on one page and the entire recipe on the next, so I don’t have to keep flipping back and forth. I also like the inclusion of fish substitutions if the main one for a given recipe isn’t available to you for whatever reason. I highly recommend this to fellow seafood lovers!

Rebecca: We live in the midwest, and have access to fresh walleye, perch, and white bass we catch ourselves out of nearby lakes. Sadly, none of these fish are covered in this book, but I think I can make some of these recipes work regardless. We purchase salmon and cod, so we will definitely try those recipes.

I have recently decided to emphasize getting lots of protein but also lots of healthy fat, and less saturated fat. That means fish/seafood will be a substantial part of my diet. I bought this book for some inspiration and ideas, and it doesn't disappoint. Loads of good general info, as well as a generous number of recipes using a multitude of techniques and ingredients (ie, inspired from all over the globe). And the pictures are lovely as well.
Great book, great value. Get it if you're considering it.

S H: Very complete and yet not overwhelming. This book is perfect for anyone who wants to integrate more fish in his diet but who are not sure where to start. Good for seasoned cooks also.

This cookbook is one that functions excellently as many things. If you are simply looking for fish recipes you have not tried before- this is it! If you are looking for recipes on a wide variety of fish types- this is it! If you are looking to increase your knowledge on methods of cooking different types of fish- this is it! If you feel most comfortable using recipes with pictures that show you how your finished recipe should look- this is it! If you are looking to be more health conscious and want the calories and nutritional information on what you cook- this is it!
I love to cook and love to read cookbooks. Usually there is an obvious flaw to the user that the writer misses. Not so in this case! This is absolutely the most complete, well written, creative and informative cookbook on fish you will probably ever need!
For me- I was really glad I took the time to read the “Getting Started” section. It is an excellent summary for the home (serious) cook on how to work with different cooking methods, different fish types, how to buy fish and how the book itself is set up. I got a ton out of this section because I totally appreciate a...

Colleen Knape: I love this cookbook! I’ve made about 1/2 dozen recipes out of it and each one is delicious. The directions are simple to follow and usually have the ingredients on hand, if not I’ll pick them up next shopping trip.
Highly recommend if you want a fish or seafood recipe!
