Excerpt from Mariner’s Menu: 30 Years of Fresh Seafood Ideas<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In ancient times, men and women cooked over an open fire as an alternative to eating raw food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, with all our advances and conveniences, we still love to cook outdoors over a flame. And it\u2019s not just burgers and steaks anymore. A meal of fresh seafood, prepared simply outdoors and eaten in the company of friends, is one of life\u2019s real pleasures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fish in any market form \u2014 drawn, dressed, steaks or fillets \u2014 may be cooked over coals. You can grill any fish that you can broil. Shellfish, depending on the recipe, may be grilled in the shell or shucked. Use the freshest fish and shellfish you can find. Lack of quality means lack of good flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many cooks like to marinate seafood before grilling. Always make marinades in a nonreactive container such as glass or stainless steel, never in aluminum or any other metal that can cause chemical action or add an off-flavor to the food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you plan to use the marinade for basting, reserve some before placing the seafood in it. Never baste cooked fish or shellfish with marinade that has been used on raw seafood. The food can become contaminated with harmful bacteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To complement your meal, try grilling your vegetables, too. Corn-in-the-husk, garlic, mushrooms, tomatoes, squash, eggplant, potatoes and other vegetables cook up great on the grill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
