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.
