Our summary description
As Independent Scottish booksellers, we write all of our descriptions personally, we hope you enjoy this one.
Seafood Journey celebrates the richness of Scotland’s waters and the communities shaped by them. Travelling the length of the coastline and across the islands, acclaimed cookery writer Ghillie Basan explores how seafood is caught, prepared and valued, from small harbours to remote island shores.
Along the way, she meets the people behind the produce. Fishermen and shellfish farmers. Smokers and curers working with traditional methods. Boat builders, net makers and those whose skills keep coastal livelihoods alive. Their stories reveal a food culture rooted in knowledge, patience and respect for the sea.
The book also includes 90 original recipes, each inspired by ingredients gathered on the journey. From everyday cooking to celebratory dishes, the recipes are practical, flavour focused and closely tied to place. Seafood Journey is both a travelogue and a kitchen companion, offering insight into Scotland’s seafood heritage alongside fresh ideas for making the most of exceptional local produce.
