Cookbook 1 - Florida Seafood Recipes For The Ages

The versatile State of Florida could appropriately be called the Land of Sunshine and Seafoods. From the clean blue waters of the Gulf Of Mexico and the South Atlantic Ocean, along its hundreds of miles of white sandy beaches, are harvested a greater variety of commercial seafood than from any other area of the country even after the ill-conceived net ban enacted in 1994. 

Florida is one of the most important producing areas for shrimp, sea trout, bluefish, and blue crabs. Richly endowed Florida waters supply most of the spiny lobster, king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, mullet, pompano, red snapper, grouper, and stone crabs that are landed and consumed in the United States. In all, more than 50 commercial species are landed each year. However, the annual production of finfish has dropped dramatically because of the net ban and ever-tightening rules against commercial fishing. Non-boating consumers have been denied a fair share of Florida’s commonly owned marine resources. Only about 100 million pounds of fresh seafood are still harvested annually by Florida’s commercial fishermen yet Florida seafood is enjoyed in every part of the United States.

Through joint marketing efforts between the Southeastern Fisheries Association, the Florida Board of Conservation and the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, these 22 scrumptious seafood recipes were developed in 1965 to help in preparing the harvest from the Land of Sunshine and Seafoods. They are dedicated to the pioneers of the Florida Seafood Industry who served as Presidents of Southeastern Fisheries Association.
