Salmon: A Cookbook

Just made the Grilled Salmon Tacos with Chipotle Sauce and it was outstanding. I am buying Salmon, The Cookbook based on just that one recipe. If that's typical of the other recipes, I won't be disappointed

It is very informative and contains many diverse and interesting recipes. Diane has managed to include very readible & important information on topics such as sustainability, farmed vs. wild, and health benefits. The recipes are true and well written. The photography is stunning. Like most of Diane's cookbooks, the enjoyable wit is there, making the information and recipes more fun to read. If you ever have the opportunity to attend one her classes, by all means do.

Diane has written a scholarly yet fun cookbook that delves into the fishing, farm raising practices, and sustainability of salmon. Her introduction takes us with her to Alaska, Norway, and Scotland to experience the salmon story. Diane's passion for salmon is not only relegated to cooking, but to protecting and consuming responsibly. Diane's recipes are global in technique and taste. Her instructions leave little to the imagination, making them easy for all levels of cooks. One example is how Diane demystifies the technique of hot-smoking inside the home. Diane suggests using an affordable stovetop smoker or wok with wire rack and lid. She gives the novice cook confidence to try a new tasty technique.This cookbook spans the world of delicious salmon recipes. The photographs by both Diane and E.J. Armstrong stimulate cooking as much as the recipes. The layout of the recipes is easy to follow with suggested wine at the top and an enticing voice from Diane leading into the dish. The recipes are interspersed with cook's notes on make ahead suggestions, equipment, and special ingredients. I'm glad that Diane Morgan has tackled Salmon and given us so many great recipes!

I have cooked from many of Ms. Morgan's books -- the midnight munchies and the dips one in particular. She has done it again. With fantastic recipes that are easy to follow and delicious to eat. Nothing about this book is ordinary. It is a great addition to my cookbook shelf. Great work and looking forward to more of her books

As someone who eats salmon on a regular basis what I care about most as a consumer are the issues of wild vs. farmed salmon, all the conflicting reports about PCB's in salmon, and the labeling and traceability issues surrounding salmon. Diane deals with all of those issues in the front of her book and that's what makes it so informative. Now as for the recipies, I have tried two at this point and have three more in the queue, the Smoked Salmon Frittata is next! There is something for everyone in my family.
