Background on: The Alaska Seafood Cookbook
Alaska, the "last frontier" is rich in many resources, the largest of
these being seafood. Each year nearly four billion pounds of
delicacies are harvested from the clear icy waters that surround the
State. Salmon, shrimp, halibut, pollock, and king crab are just a few
of the varieties of seafood that Alaska shares with consumers world
wide.
This cookbook, a collection of treasured family secrets, is one of the
ways Alaskans promote the seafood bounty that is harvested from
our waters. The cookbook is divided into four sections:
* Gourmet - Extraordinarily fine food in flavor and appearance.
* Fast and Fancy - Quick to create but looks fancy on the plate.
* Galley - Dishes that can be prepared in advance.
* Jr. Seafood - Simple dishes that a young cook could prepare, or help
to prepare.
Over the summer of 1986 Alaskans were asked to bring their
favorite seafood dishes to contests held during regional State fairs.
Recipes were judged on several characteristics including appearance,
taste, and the creative use of Alaska seafood. Mail in entries were
also accepted. In the fall, the recipes were tested and reevaluated in
five Home Economics classes around the State. The recipes
presented here give a small sample of how Alaskans prepare their
seafood.
The artwork chosen for the cookbook was selected from over 50
original line art drawings. The artwork was submitted in a statewide
contest held this fall within the high schools.
The Good News About
Seafood Nutrition...
Nutritionists now recommend eating two or more seafood meals a
week. One reason for this is linked to the type and amount of fat
found in fish and shellfish. Omega-3 fatty acids, one of the
components of fat in seafood, appear to help lower blood cholesterol
in people and therefore may help reduce the risk of heart disease.
Virtually all seafood is low in fat. And the fats that are in seafood are
largely polyunsaturated, the type considered most beneficial for heart
health. Fish with higher fat content, such as salmon, tend to have
higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids than lower-fat fish.
