A stunning and inspiring guide to selecting, preparing, and enjoying sustainable seafood, with 75 recipes, from a world-class spearfisherwoman. Growing up in Montreal, Canada, Valentine Thomas was not innately drawn to the water; in fact, it scared her. But later, dissatisfied with her work in corporate law and finance, she was introduced to a sport called spearfishing while on holiday in Ibiza. The ocean--which she had once feared--became her greatest passion, and she made fishing and diving her life's work. In Good Catch, Valentine shares her love for the bounty of waters around the world, as well as her enthusiasm and expertise for cooking fish and seafood in a sustainable way. The recipes, inspired by Valentine's favorite fishing destinations, are organized by region, and include classic and creative preparations such as Grilled Clams with Butter, Garlic, and Parsley, a Seafood Boil, Snapper Panzanella with Grapefruit, and Fish Head Nachos. Valentine also teaches readers the surprisingly simple skills you'll need to build a responsible seafood repertoire, provides tips for making the most eco-friendly choices, and the best ways to prepare each and every type of fish, from ceviche to a tuna tomahawk. Illustrated by gorgeous photography of both the dishes and scenes from Valentine's dramatic dives, this book is an adventure into the world of delicious and sustainable seafood.
