Directions
Basque Fish Soup,I just re-found this recipe while going through my Mom’s old file box. She used to make this quite often when I was a child. She probably found the recipe in the newspaper. This is a quick, easy and delicious recipe using ingredients that I usually have on hand. It’s also very versatile as for substituting….I didn’t have fresh parsley so used dried. I only had 1 can of diced tomatoes so used the can of Ro-tel, which I did have on hand. Also, use any combo of fish/shellfish…tonight I made this using 2 small tilapia fillets and 1/2 lb. of bay scallops, it was a nice combo. This is a great cold weather soup….it will give you the warm fuzzies. I served it with freshly baked dinner rolls, though a crusty bread would be nice too.,I also have been making this for 40 years or so. It was in the New York Times food section. My husband begs me to make this, and now that he chops the veggies, its so easy! Ive been doing it without the recipe for several years. Nice to find the original. I usually put in cod or similar first, then scallops, and finally shrimp. Its quite an expensive dish with all the fish, especially scallops, but its worth the money. Crusty Homemade garlic bread, toasted in the oven is a must. I do recommend sweet, not salted butter. Better flavor. Enjoy!!! great for parties and Christmas Eve. ??,Ive been making this recipe for 40 years! Almost exactly the same although Ive made a few changes to make it more interesting. I add colored peppers, big chunks of onion, mushrooms, and some red pepper for spice. It is delicious and my whole family LOVES it! Thanks for posting it, so I can pin it! Serve with crusty bread. A WONDERFUL STEW!
