Seafood recipes

19 recipes

Here are my seafood recipes — with mussels, shrimp and squid: pizza, rice, soups and salads. A good place to start is seafood pizza frutti di mare or pilaf with mussels, ready in 45 minutes.

How I cook seafood

The main thing is not to overcook it. I drop cleaned mussels into boiling broth, cover and cook for 5 minutes — any longer and the meat turns tough; the details are in how to cook mussels. For shrimp there is a separate guide, how to boil shrimp, and I use the same method for other fresh seafood.

If you want soup

Creamy seafood soup, fish soup with shrimp and Manhattan-style mussel chowder.

If you want rice or a salad

Rice with shrimp and vegetables, Mexican-style seafood rice, a light squid salad and a shrimp salad in 30 minutes.
