“When not actively working the nets, the [Salmon Sisters do] a lot of the cooking, both on land and boat, learning to cope with dwindling fresh vegetable supplies on weeks-long fishing expeditions. This cookbook replicates the recipes the sisters have developed. They are generally simple, emphasizing the fish’s freshness and complementing with herbs and onions or garlic. Yet they don’t hesitate to branch out with cardamom-date waffles, about as tropically sourced as can be imagined. Alaskan fish species and the means of catching them are laid out with easy-to-understand drawings and text.”
