Description
Determined to take whatever was landed and to use as much of that as possible, not to mention building up a larder for days when bad weather meant there were no boats out, Aishling had to get creative. That philosophy is reflected in Whole Catch, which shows you how to cook seafood from gill to fin.
With musings on sustainable seafood and regenerative aquaculture, illustrated step-by-step instructions on how to prepare whole fish and pro tips for how to cook fish at home, Aishling challenges the idea of the 'catch of the day' and will change how you think about seafood.

Goldie achieved Michelin Bib Gourmand status in 2021 and in 2022 was awarded Best Casual Dining in Ireland 2022 by both Food & Wine Magazine and the Restaurant Association of Ireland.

Reviews
Absolutely loving this beautiful collection of cookbooks from Blasta Books, celebrating the diversity of food in and around Ireland. * Jamie Oliver *
These small, gorgeous, single-subject cookbooks...are fantastic. And, clearly, deeply aesthetically pleasing. They're so beautifully designed and illustrated. I really love the whole enterprise. * India Knight *
This cookbook series from Blasta Books is just brilliant. Pithy, opinionated, learned, well-written and beautifully designed. Loved every single one. * Tom Parker Bowles *
