Book Reviews of Fish Without a Doubt: The Cook's Essential Companion

Book Review: A turgid text book
Summary: 1 Stars

I intend to read this book from cover to cover and I am sure that I will learn much about fish and seafood. If I ever want to open a fish restaurant, I am sure it will become indispensable. However, for a home cook (and cooking is my passion) this book is painful to use. When I am researching a recipe I don't want to find cross-references to other recipes that, in turn, cross reference to yet another. I don't want to make batches of sauces (however exquisite for one purpose) and then either be yoked to recipes that can use them before they go off, or simply waste them. Of the 80+ cook books in my collection this has to rate amongst the worst.
