Ingredients for Seafood Bisque

Method

Directions for Seafood Bisque

1

Sauté Aromatics

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.

2

Add Tomato Paste and Wine

Mix in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the dry white wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes.

3

Incorporate Stock and Seasoning

Add the fish stock, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes.

4

Blend the Soup

Remove the bay leaves. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup.

5

Add Seafood and Cream

Stir in the heavy cream and mixed seafood. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through.

6

Garnish and Serve

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
