The Louisiana seafood bible

Description

"...Jerald Horst, a fisheries expert in south Louisiana, has compiled a wealth of information about shrimp, including biological facts, the history of the industry, and the art of buying, cooking, and storing it. With the help of his wife, Glenda, Horst has included a wide selection of recipes, from molds to gumbos to stews and beyond. Many of these dishes were developed over generations and passed down among coastal families who know seafood as a way of life. While there are many adaptations of popular recipes, a few, such as Smothered Shrimp and Cucumbers, are original inventions. Featured fare rang from shrimp kebads to entrees like Shrimp and Cheese Manicotti and Skinny Shrimp Cupcakes, a lighter treat for those watching their waistlines. Every dish was home-tested with care in the Horst kitchen, and the very best of the best are indicated by four stars" -- inside cover.
