Killer Shrimp

Killer Shrimp by John Spottiswood

Nancy and I loved eating at this hole in the wall restaurant in Marina Del Ray called Killer Shrimp. It was in a strip mall and didn't have much character, but their "killer" shrimp drew a loyal crowd. I recently heard that it had closed, so I've tried to recreate it with help from a few others who have tried. I think what most the…

Simple Clam Chowder

Simple Clam Chowder by Nancy Miyasaki

We brought this last weekend to a cracked crab party. Everyone thought it was wonderful. It's hard to compete with fresh cracked crab, but this easy and delicious clam chowder was the perfect accompaniment. My husband added heavy cream to most of the chowder, but reserved some without the cream. It definitely tastes richer and…

New England Chunky Herbed Quahog Chowder

New England Chunky Herbed Quahog Chowder by Robyn Savoie

Quahog's, also known as "chowder clams" are big hard-shelled clams. If you don't live New England, you use chopped canned clams, but even better are fresh chopped clams carried in many seafood markets. Be sure to save the juice to use in the chowder. Tradition holds that clam chowder is made with salt pork, but good salt pork…

Carolina Coast Shirmp Bog

Carolina Coast Shirmp Bog by John Spottiswood

A bog (unlike a pilau) is any stew that includes wet, soggy rice. This recipe was adapted from one of my favorite cookbooks, Stews, Bogs, and Burgoos by James Villas. I've left out the bacon for health reasons. It is delicious as is, but would undoubtedly be even more tasty with the bacon.

"Desert" Low Boil

"Desert" Low Boil by Unknown Chef

I was hankering for an old fashioned New England Clam Bake or Lobster boil. We are from CT nearing our 13th year in southern NM. So, a lobster boil or clam bake is not a choice except for a very special occasion and we must order the seafood on-line. I searched several on-line sites and found that a "Low Boil" is similar to a New…

Easy Manhattan Clam Chowder

Easy Manhattan Clam Chowder by B Innes

Although fresh is best, it is a chore to open and chop so many calms and in many places they are not easy to find, so using canned ingredients is certainly acceptable. I think that the two secrets to a great Manhattan clam chowder are a great clammy taste and a lot of thyme. This recipe will give you both with easy to use items…

Shrimp and Tofu Donburi

Shrimp and Tofu Donburi by John Spottiswood

I adapted this recipe from a mixed tempura donburi, substituting fresh shrimp and tofu without the tempura batter. The result is a healthier, and still very tasty, dish that our whole family really enjoys. You can use chicken or salmon in place of the shrimp, and it is equally delicious! Donburi's are wonderful cold weather food.…
