Embark on a fresh and delicious culinary tour of coastal America! Shrimp Country invites readers to discover the southern shoreline from Texas to the Carolinas, savoring the region?s sea air, saltwater, and succulent shrimp.
Shrimp is a perfect ingredient. Mild enough to be a part of delicately-flavored dishes and succulent enough to be eaten on its own, it pairs well with both spicy and sweet ingredients and can be fried, sautéed, steamed, broiled, or grilled. In this savory homage to the crustacean, culinarian Anna Marlis Burgard gathers more than 100 tempting recipes, from regional classics like perloo, wiggle, and bog to global fare such as shrimp empanadas, shrimp saganaki, and tom kha gai. Coastal families share their favorite recipes, and seaside restaurants reveal the tasty secrets that lure in customers.
Brimming with the larger-than-life personalities of trawler captains, food truck masters, diner cooks, and award-winning chefs, Shrimp Country is a love letter to coastal communities and their joy-filled, soul-fueling kitchens. Kick off your shoes, roll up your sleeves, and dig in!
