Cooking Alaskan

Rating:
Summary: A must-have for every Alaskan!
Review: As a new Alaska resident, I am so glad I stumbled upon this cookbook. My husband is an avid hunter and fisherman, and I love to garden and pick berries. Cooking Alaskan has recipes for all of our wild game, water foul, fish, seafood, herbs, vegetables, berries, and more! If you can hunt it, catch it, grow it, or pick it, there is a recipe in this cookbook for you. A majority of the recipes (if not all) are submitted by tried-and-true Alaskans, not fancy chefs, so they are easy to follow and use ingredients that can be found in any supermarket.

The best feature of Cooking Alaskan is perhaps not the recipes, but all of the extra information contained inbetween. Tips on harvesting, butchering, cleaning, and storing Alaska foods; lessons on identifying poisonous plants and berries; and antecdotes and stories of Alaskan culture are practical, useful, and most of all, entertaining. Cooking Alaskan is much more than just a cookbook!

Summary: Simply The Best!!
Review: I have owned more than one copy of this amazingly informative and very complete book! (I typically have had to replace it after friends and family from the lower 48 have visited my Alaska home.) This book provides an excellent selection of tradtional and non-traditional recipes as well as fascinating information on Alaska.

A must have for anyone who lives in Alaska, dreams of Alaska or collects cookbooks.
