GREEK FISHERMAN'S STEW



Greek Fisherman's Stew image

It's summer, and no matter what you choose to drink, your plate should be bright with ripe beefsteak tomatoes and basil. If those treasures of the season complement a piece of fish, so much the better. Consider a kakavia, something Greek fishermen may assemble right on their boats, adding ingredients in fairly quick order as they cook in a round-bottomed pot also called a kakavia. It's a dish that welcomes wines that are clean-cut but with lip-smacking acidity balanced by sunny suggestions of melon and tropical fruit, like Austrian rieslings.

FISHERMAN'S WHARF CIOPPINO



Fisherman's Wharf Cioppino image

This is a recipe adapted from one at Catalina Offshore Products, purveyors of fresh seafood. I've prepared this with great results. It reminds me of dinners at Alioto's Restaurant in San Francisco at Fisherman's Wharf, where in 1938 Rose Alioto created an Italian seafood stew called Cioppino, now a San Francisco culinary legend. In addition to or in lieu of the ingredients listed, you can add clams, mussels or lobster.

A recipe this simple has many advantages. It's fast, easy, and doesn't require a ton of prep, but the downside is, there's nowhere to hide subpar ingredients. So, unless you're going to splurge on the freshest, sweetest, most pristine seafood you can find, you may want to look for another recipe. Serve with crusty bread on the side.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood. The fresher the seafood, the better the stew will taste. If you can't get fresh seafood, frozen seafood is a good option.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Seafood cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked seafood is tough and chewy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of the stew, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use store-bought broth or make your own.
  • Season the stew to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of white wine or lemon juice for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Fisherman's Wharf stew is a delicious and easy-to-make seafood stew. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. With its variety of fresh seafood, vegetables, and seasonings, Fisherman's Wharf stew is sure to please everyone at the table.
