Fish Grilled and Smoked or Coffee and Espresso

Fish Grilled and Smoked: 150 Recipes for Cooking Rich, Flavorful Fish on the Grill

Author: John Manikowski

There are at least 20,000 species of fish in the oceans, rivers, and streams of the world. In Fish Grilled & Smoked, master fisherman and chef John Manikowski teaches seafood lovers 150 succulent ways to cook just about anything that swims.

If this book were only a cookbook, it would be a valuable addition to any kitchen library. But Manikowski has nudged Fish Grilled & Smoked into the realm of the truly unique by providing step-by-step instructions for rigging a smoker streamside, operating a smoker at home, and even building a full-size backyard smokehouse. Manikowski then lists which species of fish are best for smoking: bluefish, yellowtail, whitefish, chub, herring, and lake trout.

As an avid outdoorsman and seafood aficionado, Manikowski is always inventing new and flavorful ways to prepare fish. This cookbook includes his innovative "soft smoke" method, suitable for any outdoor grill, which uses dried corn to give the fish a sweet flavor. Seafood lovers will also savor the wild cuisine recipes Manikowski developed in the woods: Striped Bass with Cattail Shoots and Morels, Grilled Butterflied Trout, and Grilled Small-mouth Bass Wrapped in Corn Husks. Plus, Manikowski supplies recipes for fish-friendly condiments, sauces, salsas, side dishes, and desserts--he even suggests which type of wine and beer goes best with his dishes.

Not only does fish make a delicious meal, it makes a healthy meal. The American Heart Association says two servings of seafood per week can help reduce the risk of heart disease. Healthy food has never been richer or more flavorful than this!

Irish Spirit or Whiskey and Spirits For Dummies

Irish Spirit: Recipes Inspired by the Legendary Drinks of Ireland

Author: Margaret M Johnson

The Irish Spirit combines the Emerald Isle's favorite recipes with a touch of ale, stout, cider, or whiskey, creating terrific new flavor combinations. Whether scallops and shrimp are poached in single-malt whiskey, tender brisket is simmered in ale and topped with a golden cheese cobbler, or old-time pineapple upside-down cake is updated with a buttery, toffee liqueur topping, each recipe is enhanced by Ireland's famous spirits. In addition to the terrific recipes is the fascinating history of Irish whiskey, stories of classic events like Belfast's popular Pub Crawl, and the origins of the infamous "black and tan," making this spirited cookbook a delight for all with a touch of the Irish.

Publishers Weekly

In her newest Irish cookbook, Johnson (Irish Pub Cookbook; Irish Heritage Cookbook) dares to take the drink from the glass and pour it right into the pot. In doing so, she raises the bar, creating rich and complex flavor combinations while instilling a good dose of Eire drinking history along the way. Chapters are organized by spirit. There are a dozen sweet recipes in the Irish Creams chapter, for example, but rooting out the many other dessert options involves browsing through the index or, better yet, paging through the many wonderful photographs. Black and Tan Brownies in the "Affable Brews" section catch the eye: a cup of Guinness stout darkens half the treat while light brown sugar and pecans make up the tan underside. Savory selections made with beer include Medieval Stew with Stout, and Oysters with Bacon, Cabbage, and Guinness Sabayon; entrees with whiskey include Bushmills Duck au Poivre with a sauce thickened by heavy cream. The resources appendix is a necessity for those seeking the traditional tastes, since Kerrygold Irish butter is used throughout, as is Irish bacon. And for those who would rather sip than chew, there are informative pages on such topics as Irish whiskey history, brewing techniques and the origins of cider. (Oct.)

Passion for Desserts

Author: Emily Luchetti

Beloved pastry chef and best-selling author Emily Luchetti lives by the simplest truth: There's always room for dessert. Why try to resist creamy chocolate cheesecake, fresh berries layered with honey cream, or homemade sorbet? Besides, with Emily's insider secrets, whipping up delicious treats for family and friends is fun! A longtime dessert lover, Luchetti shares an impressive - yet deceptively easy - array of recipes that regale the fruits and pure flavors of each season. From frequently used basics like melt-in-the-mouth tart shells, luxe cr me fra che, and chocolate sauce, to creative twists on old favorites such as Raspberry Ice Cream Sandwiches and Espresso Cupcakes, each of these pleasures will leave home cooks wanting to try the next. With just one bite of Lemon Raspberry Bread Pudding, one sip of a soothing Bourbon Milkshake, and one whiff of a Chocolate Mocha Truffle, anyone with a sweet tooth will understand why this book is an irresistible must-have.

Publishers Weekly

At first glance, this volume doesn't look all that approachable: the tiny print on its glossy page is easily obscured by stray swirls, and the cover photoan exact cube of ice cream and cake layers coated in a lost-looking dribble of carameldoesn't inspire confidence. But it would be a mistake to pass this cookbook by; Luchetti, pastry chef for Jeremiah Tower, has a contagious, far-ranging fascination with her subject. In this, her third book (after Stars Desserts and Four Star Desserts), she organizes desserts by season, a welcome departure from the usual cake-cookies-custard triumvirate. Spring recipes celebrate the year's first fruits (Strawberry Ginger Sodas; Rhubarb Orange Tart), while summer ones emphasize berries and stone fruit (Berry Creme Fraiche Cake)better still, at least half the summer recipes do not start with the dreaded "Preheat the oven to...." Autumn (Fig Galettes with Cinnamon Marsala Sabayon) goes beyond the usual apples and gourds, and winter is essentially a paean to chocolatetruffles, trifles, fondues. Luchetti isn't afraid of less popular dessert forms like crepes and compotes, and readers may at times have to scamper through the book searching for sub-recipes, garnishes and sauces (e.g., Apple Splits: easy if you have caramel sauce, vanilla creme anglaise and cinnamon ice cream on hand). Still, even at their most complex, none violates Luchetti's rule: no more than three primary flavors in a dessert. Her sure hand with the sweet tooth makes this a sybaritic, inspiring addition to an often cluttered genre. (Oct.) Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
