Dig, Shuck, Shake – Pacific Northwest Fish & Seafood Recipes with Heart

Dive into the true flavor of the Pacific Northwest! Dig, Shuck, Shake is far more than a seafood cookbook — it’s a vibrant, story‑rich celebration of coastal life, fishing culture, and the generations of families who have lived, cooked, and worked along the PNW shoreline.

Author John Nelson grew up on the beach, learning hands‑on techniques for harvesting, preparing, and cooking a wide variety of sea creatures. His recipes are woven together with personal stories, local traditions, and the multicultural influences that shape Pacific Northwest cuisine — from Indigenous foodways to Scandinavian, German, Asian, South American, and more.

The result is a book that feels like a conversation with a seasoned fisherman: warm, practical, funny, and deeply rooted in place. Whether you're a seafood lover, a home cook, or a PNW enthusiast, this book brings the coast’s flavors and culture right into your kitchen.
