DIE SEGLERKÜCHE / Günther Schertler, Andreas Becker

More than just a cookery book for on board: this beautiful illustrated book guides you through a two-week culinary cruise on a small yacht.

The 99 board-friendly recipes range from delicious breakfasts and snacks to main courses and desserts. From classic national dishes with fish and meat to light Mediterranean cuisine with lots of fresh vegetables, the selection of dishes from all over Europe is perfect for preparation on boats.

Precise information on preparation times and recommendations as to which dish is suitable for days with a light breeze, days with crisp gusts or for idling in the bay or harbour make it easier for the cook to decide. Ready-made shopping lists guarantee problem-free success and the satisfaction of fellow sailors. The detailed glossary provides guidance on how to use the provisions sensibly.

In addition to numerous practical tips for cooking on board and lots of interesting facts about food, "Die Seglerküche" also offers little anecdotes from seafaring. The colour photographs by Andreas Becker show all the dishes described as well as various seascapes.

Made from strong paper in a ring binding (can be folded out flat!) - a book that can actually be used in the galley (and in the kitchen).
