Description
Fish and shellfish are the perfect healthy fast supper, a treat we enjoy when eating out, but often something we shy away from when cooking for ourselves. With Home Shores at your side, you need never do so again.
By following Emily Scott's tried-and-tested techniques, and the hints and tips that accompany the recipes throughout, you will soon be cooking perfect pan-fried fish dinners and super seafood suppers with confidence at home, including Lemony Orzo with Tuna, Avocado, Spring Onions and Mint, Hot Smoked Trout and Watercress Tarts, and Sea Bass with Malaysian Dressing.
Coupled with Emily's expert advice on what to look for when choosing and buying fish and shellfish, how best to prepare them, a chapter on using just tinned fish and another on Emily's favourite flavoured butters, sauces and sides, including Citrus Vodka Tomato Sauce, Green Olive Caponata, and Fig and Apple Pickles, plus an equally important section on the art of making a good fish stock, Home Shores is guaranteed to become your go-to kitchen companion whenever you fancy fish for dinner.

Reviews / Votes
This book is a true celebration of the sea, mixing a love for the ocean with simple, straightforward methods that make cooking fresh fish easy and enjoyable. -- Jose Pizarro Great dishes require good ingredients that are prepared with knowledge and respect. Nowhere is this more evident than in fish cooking, where fine sauces and artful presentation can't disguise shortcomings on the plate. Emily combines a lifelong love of the ocean with a realistic appreciation of what can be achieved in the kitchen. She marries romance with realism, passion with practicality. In Home Shores, she also has exciting recipes that I am planning to try at home. -- Pierre Koffmann Emily's book is inspired, fresh, exciting yet simple. Food that does good and tastes good too. -- Amelia Freer Emily Scott's Home Shores feels like a warm invitation to the coast. For anyone new to seafood or just looking to be inspired, her simple, soulful recipes capture the true essence of cooking by the sea - it's like bringing a bit of the ocean's magic right into your kitchen. -- Rachel Khoo Packed full of beautiful recipes I just want to cook (and eat!), the perfect combination of familiar and classic flavours with plenty of added zing from some interesting ingredients and inventive ideas. This book makes me yearn for long balmy evenings with friends, popping a few corks and cooking up a fishy feast to share. -- Genevieve Taylor An important, beautiful book celebrating all that is good and generous from the waters around us. Organised into thoughtful chapters, with thorough descriptions of the sea's bounty and useful tips on pans, tools and choosing well, this is an essential addition to every cook's culinary library. -- Amy PoonMore details
