Catch: A Maine Seafood Cookbook

The Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association (MCFA) spent two years curating recipes for this cookbook from local Maine chefs, fishing families, and Mainers. All the recipes use household ingredients, and the photos of the prepared meals depict the recipes just like you might make them at home.

Seafood is not delicate or precious and MCFA wants to be sure that when you read these recipes, you will say, “Yeah, I can make that!” We all know what it’s like to read a cookbook and glance and the photos and ingredients and think, “That’s not gonna happen.”

Proceeds from the sale of this cookbook help support MCFA’s mission and important programs like Fishermen Feeding Mainers, Fishermen Wellness, and Working Waterfront.

MCFA is an industry-driven nonprofit working to restore the fisheries in the Gulf of Maine and sustain Maine’s fishing communities for future generations. The fishermen that the organization represents rely on a strong seafood market, so MCFA created this cookbook to help people eat, enjoy, and celebrate seafood every day.
