Sea Salt is a gorgeous new collection of over a hundred sea-tested gourmet recipes suitable for meals aboard but equally satisfying for the home dining table. The authors are themselves dedicated sailors and bring readers on a voyage around Vancouver Island aboard their classic wooden sailboat Aeriel, drawing inspiration from the area's seafood, farmers' markets and wineries.

Richly illustrated with colour photographs of the dishes as well as many spectacular seascapes, Sea Salt invites readers to spend a leisurely morning in a favourite anchorage savouring Blueberry Bread Puddings with Maple Mascarpone; raft up with Albacore Tuna Niçoise; and make new friends on the dock with Cheesecake Nanaimo Bars.

Whether catering to a hungry crew at sea or at home, any cook will appreciate the benefits of thoughtful preparation, clever shortcuts, local ingredients, a hearty dose of creativity and fast, fresh, delicious meals.
