The Pacific Northwest Seafood Cookbook
By Naomi Tomky
For thousands of years, the abundance of fish and shellfish in the Pacific Northwest created a seafood paradise for the Indigenous peoples hunting and gathering along the region’s pristine waterways, and, later, for the Chinese, Scandinavian, Filipino, and Japanese immigrants (along with many others), who have made this region home. Drawing on these diverse influences, the region fostered a cuisine that is as varied as its people, yet which remains specifically Northwestern. Here, food writer Naomi Tomky leads readers through an exploration of this cuisine with 75 delicious recipes including IPA-Battered Cod, Dungeness Crab Deviled Eggs, and Pink Scallop Ceviche.
