Nestled in the sparkling waters of the Pacific Northwest lies one of world's richest archipelagos -- the San Juan Islands. The natural beauty of this region is well known to visitors and residents alike. The bounty of its gentle land and surrounding seas provide the natural ingredients for fresh, mouth watering flavors. San Juan Classics II celebrates the abundance of the area offering a unique blend of cuisines created by people who love good food.Authors Dawn Ashbach and Janice Veal, after 10 successful years with their first book, San Juan Classics, now present a second book featuring new cooking styles, new restaurants and chefs of the region. San Juan Classics II is an eclectic collection of more than 250 recipes ranging from quick and healthy to complex and decadent. In the spirit of the first book, it melds Northwest fare with classic ethnic dishes. Using recipes as varied as Dungeness Crab with Lemon Risotto to Grilled Steak with Peppercorn Sauce, the authors have combined the best of the old and new. Naturalist Peter Capen has painted a colorful word picture of the region in an introduction that captures the essence of the islands and photographs of island scenes provide a finishing touch. Given such a splendid setting, it seems natural that chefs and cooks be inspired by the bounty that San Juan Classics II provides.
