This plate of food looks better than it tastes. It’s a work in progress. Here’s the process I go through to create new dishes.
Fish
Broiled Trout
Broiled trout is a quick and easy way to cook trout fillets too large for a frying pan, too thin to stand up to the grill. Here’s how to master this technique.
Trout Cakes
One of the best ways to use the trim on a salmon or trout is to make trout cakes with it. This is a simple, homey recipe for that.
Hauling Gear
Hauling commercial hand trolling gear on my friend’s boat gave me a whiff of days past as a deckhand. Hard work felt good. So did catching fish.

How to Make Dried Shrimp
Dried shrimp are used in many cuisines, from Mexico to Southeast Asia to West Africa. Here’s how to make dried shrimp at home.
