Chef Mikkel Karstad takes us on a fishing trip around the lakes, rivers and coastline of his native Denmark, catching and cooking fish and shellfish from sustainable species only. Each is given its own chapter, from plaice and skate to razor clams, langoustine and crab, with clear examples as to why zander fillet is an ethical and even more delicious alternative to the diminishing stocks of its sister fish, perch. Karstad not only cooks but styles each dish himself, bringing his elegant and fresh design aesthetic to over 80 delicious and nutritional recipes. Photography by Anders Schonnemann, shot on the beach, at sea and in the kitchen, beautifully complements Karstad's open-air lifestyle.
