OLD-STYLE SAN FRANCISCO CRAB CIOPPINO



Old-Style San Francisco Crab Cioppino image

San Francisco Cioppino. Many have had it with the heavy red sauce and seafood. Not the best, in our opinion. This recipe was handed down from an elderly Italian lady in San Francisco in the 50's. Hehee...original recipe called for a "cheese glass" of white wine. So authentic! This recipe makes the most wonderful seafood broth, a touch spicy with loads of great seafood. We have made it for years and it is a real winner! This is a very authentic, old style, San Francisco Crab Cioppino. The recommended ingredients make enough for 6-8 hungry seafood fans. This is the kind of meal where you can sit and eat and sip wine for a few hours. You will need plenty of napkins and bibs are recommended. You will also need some crab/lobster tools to get all of the wonderful meat. Share this with people you know, who won't mind getting rather messy! Don't forget lots of toasted sourdough garlic bread. Dip it in the broth as you go. If you are a seafood fan and love a great broth, you will not be dissapointed.

Time 2h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 large yellow onion, chopped medium
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2/3 cup tomato sauce
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
6 ounces white wine, Chardonnay
2 teaspoons dried sage
2/3 bunch fresh parsley, chopped medium fine
2 -4 garlic cloves, minced
4 celery ribs, finely chopped
1 lb shrimp, raw and shelled
1 lb bay scallop
1 lb sea bass, cut into1-2-inch cubes
2 dungeness crabs, cooked, cleaned & cracked (Uncooked adds a lot of flavor! cleaned, cracked)
1 lb small clam, in shell
1 lb mussels, in shell
1 large sourdough bread, sweet french bread ok, basted with
olive oil, and
fresh garlic, oven browned

Steps:

  • Using a TALL 8-10 quart pot, cover the bottom of the pot with a good virgin olive oil, about ¼ cup. Add the chopped onion, sage, garlic, parsley and celery and sauté slow and stirring often until tender, approximately 20 minutes. If it gets too dry, add a little more olive oil. Add tomato sauce and cayenne pepper. Reduce to lowest simmer and cook for approximately 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally. If it gets too dry, add a little water.
  • Add 10-12 cups of water and bring to a boil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Begin adding the seafood. Raw crab first (if not raw, then cooked is an ok substitute.) If you get raw crab, cleaned and chopped, it will be much better). Return to a low boil, then lower to low-medium heat for 15 minutes.
  • Then add clams and mussels. Continue to simmer 10 minutes. Add the shrimp and scallops, simmer for 10 minutes, along with a cheese glass of white wine (6 oz.) before serving. Ok if this sits on low heat for 15-20 minutes. Add the fish 5-7 minutes before you are ready to serve. Any longer than that, take it off the heat and reheat gently before serving. Ladle into large bowls and have a few extra bowls on the table for shells.
  • Have plenty of garlic and olive oil basted sourdough bread, finished with shredded parmesan cheese and your favorite California Chardonay. Offer the usual complement of crab tools, crackers, pickers, etc.
  • Left-overs should be refrigerated and eaten next day or two. After eating, offer your guests a warm hand towel with fresh lemon squirted on it, with a little water, microwave on high for 30 seconds.

Number Of Ingredients 31

Good olive oil
2 cups (1/2-inch-diced) fennel bulb
1 1/2 cups (1/2-inch-diced) yellow onion (1 large)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1 teaspoon whole dried fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, such as San Marzano
4 cups seafood stock, preferably homemade (recipe follows)
1 1/2 cups dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds center-cut cod fillets, skin removed, 2-inch diced
1 pound large (16 to 20-count) shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 pound sea scallops, halved crosswise
24 mussels, scrubbed
1 tablespoon Pernod
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Garlic Toasts, for serving (recipe follows)
2 tablespoons good olive oil
Shells from 1 pound large shrimp
2 cups chopped yellow onion (2 onions)
2 carrots, unpeeled and chopped
3 celery stalks, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
1/3 cup tomato paste
10 sprigs fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 baguette
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic clove, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large (12-inch) heavy pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Add the fennel and onion and saute for 10 minutes, until tender. Stir in the garlic, fennel seeds, and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the tomatoes, stock, wine, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. The stock will be highly seasoned.
  • Add the seafood in the following order: first the cod, then the shrimp, scallops, and finally the mussels. Do not stir! Bring to a simmer, lower the heat, cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until all the seafood is cooked and the mussels are open. Stir in the Pernod, being careful not to break up the fish; cover and set aside for 3 minutes for the flavors to blend. Discard any mussels that have not opened. Ladle into large shallow bowls, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot with Garlic Toasts.
  • Warm the oil in a medium pot set over medium heat. Add the shrimp shells, onions, carrots, and celery and cook for 15 minutes, until lightly browned. Add the garlic and cook for one more minute. Add 1 1/2 quarts water, the wine, tomato paste, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for one hour. Strain through a sieve, pressing on the solids. You should have approximately 1 quart of stock. If not, add enough water or white wine to make 1 quart.
  • Cool completely, transfer to containers, and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Slice the baguette diagonally in 1/4-inch-thick slices. Depending on the size of the baguette, you should get 20 to 25 slices.
  • Lay the slices in one layer on a sheet pan, brush each with olive oil, and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until browned and crisp. As soon as they're cool enough to handle, rub the top of the toasts with a cut side of the garlic. Serve at room temperature.
