ITALIAN SEAFOOD SALAD
Steps:
- Fill a large pot with 3 quarts of water and add the Old Bay seasoning and 1 tablespoon of salt. Bring to a boil, add the shrimp, lower the heat, and simmer for 3 minutes, until just firm. With a skimmer or slotted spoon, transfer the shrimp to a large bowl. Leave 2 cups of the poaching liquid in the pot and discard the rest.
- Add the wine to the poaching liquid and bring to a boil. Add the scallops, lower the heat, and simmer for 2 minutes, until just cooked. With the skimmer, transfer the scallops to the bowl with the shrimp. Bring the poaching liquid back to a boil, add the calamari, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, until just cooked. Be careful not to overcook any of the seafood or it will be tough! With the skimmer, transfer the calamari to the bowl.
- Bring the poaching liquid to a boil again, add the mussels, cover, and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, until all the shells have opened, discarding any that don't open. Turn off the heat and set aside until the mussels in the broth are cool enough to handle. Remove the mussels from the shells and add to the bowl. Add 12 of the shells to the seafood and discard the rest. Set aside 1/2 cup of the poaching liquid, discarding the rest. Drain the seafood in a colander and put it all back into the bowl.
- For the dressing, heat the olive oil in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes and cook for 1 minute. (Be careful: Overcooked garlic will be bitter.) Add the tomatoes and cook over medium heat for 2 more minutes. Add the reserved poaching liquid, the limoncello, lemon zest, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and cook for 1 more minute. Pour the sauce over the seafood and toss gently. Add the fennel and parsley. Cut a lemon in half lengthwise, cut it thinly crosswise, and add it to the salad. Toss gently to combine and cover with plastic wrap. Chill for at least 3 hours or overnight.
- To serve, sprinkle with 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and the juice of the remaining lemon. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lemon halves and garlic, then submerge a large heatproof strainer in the water. Soak the red onion in ice water while you cook the seafood. Fill a large bowl with ice water; set aside.
- Add the shrimp to the strainer in the boiling water and cook until pink, about 2 minutes; carefully remove the strainer and add the shrimp to the large bowl of ice water. Bring the water back to a boil, return the strainer to the pot, then add the scallops and simmer until cooked through, about 2 minutes; remove the strainer and add the scallops to the ice water. Repeat with the calamari, cooking until they just turn opaque, about 2 minutes. Repeat with the mussels, covering the pot; cook until the shells open, about 5 minutes. Drain the seafood from the ice water and remove the mussels from their shells; pat the seafood dry.
- Drain the red onion and pat dry. Combine the seafood, red onion, celery, fennel, olives and parsley in a large bowl. Drizzle with the lemon juice and olive oil and toss; season with salt and pepper. Let stand 30 minutes before serving (or refrigerate up to 4 hours; bring to room temperature before serving).

Steps:
- For the court bouillon: Combine the white wine, peppercorns, thyme, bay leaves, dill, serranos, lemons and fennel in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then add 8 cups room temperature water and the shrimp. Put the squid and the scallops in a fine-mesh strainer and lower them directly into the court bouillon. Gently poach the seafood until cooked through and tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the seafood to a plate, strain the court bouillon into a bowl, and then add the seafood back to the court bouillon. Add a few ice cubes to cool the liquid down. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
