Suggested interview topics
From net to table no-one knows more about catching, cooking and eating salmon than LaDonna. She’s been a commercial fisherwoman in Alaska for more than two decades, cooking at sea without ready access to a grocery store, in a tiny kitchen (galley). Being chief cook and deckhand on the LaDonna Rose has uniquely positioned her to discuss a wide variety of topics, including:
- Why friends don’t let friends eat farmed salmon
- What to look for when choosing fish
- King vs. coho vs. sockeye and others. Which should I choose? How do I know which to bake, broil or BBQ?
- Inventive cooking in tight spaces
- Cooking quick and easy meals without sacrificing flavor or healthy eating
For boating or fishing publications
- Galley tips and galley essentials
- Cooking in tight spaces
- Provisioning for cruising
- Cooking while underway
- Creative cooking in the galley
