This is a dish adapted from a restaurant my family ate at sometime ago, & I tried making it for my hubby’s Birthday Seafood Galore.

I love cooking Bouillabaisse at home. It’s rich with assorted seafood & I can add whatever I find in the supermarket – mussels, clams, prawns, fish, squid etc. To reproduce the restaurant’s version of Ciopinno, I just need add Linguine & Soft Shell Crab.

  3. Remove fish. When cool, take out the meat to add to soup later, giving it an extra richness.
  4. Strain the rest of the cooked food & reserve stock.
