Favorite Cioppino

"This is recipe I pried out of chef at a favorite restaurant when he took this off the menu. Now I don't have to specially request! : ) Please note that amounts are approximate as are types of seafood; change to your liking. Don't forget to make garlic bread to sop up the juices! **Sometimes I also like to sub tarragon for basil, but be sure you like the flavor of tarragon before you do this!"

  1. I love cioppino and this recipe hits the spot .I've ordered cioppino in restaurants before but I've never made it myself until now, this tastes like the best cioppino I've ever eaten. Thank you for posting.......Delish!
     
  2. This is very good. I had never made cioppino with marinara sauce before, and this is a bit richer than my usual clam broth, diced tomatoes and wine version. But it is a nice change. I used clams and mussels, with tilapia and a seafood mix that included shrimp, calamari and scallops. Served with hot rosemary French bread.

I love food. I love my family. I love my animals. I love life. I really enjoy simple but special recipes. My "kids" (2 "big dogs" and a cat) usually are my taste testers...(not to mention disposals)... I look forward to having some human responses to my creations.....More than that, I hope you enjoy and find some happiness in all of them. I've enjoyed creating/collecting, it is my priviledge to share with my Zaar friends! Favorite cookbook? Of my 500 or so, I must say Sid Goldstein's "The Wine Lover's Cookbook" takes top rank. Decadent, but absolutely amazing food, and pairs everything up with the appropriate wine to boot! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg"> <img src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
