VODKA AND SPICY TOMATO-CREAM SAUCE WITH PENNE, KING CRAB LEGS AND SHRIMPS by Cecelia Heer

Back in 1993, Patricia Wells' recipe for Penne with Vodka and Spicy Tomato-Cream Sauce (Penne alla Bettola) from her cookbook TRATTORIA was published in The New York Times. Although it has been more than 20 years, I still have the tattered and stained…

Cioppino by John Elder

This is the NY version of a San Franciscan Italian seafood stew. They focus on crabs while I focus on a nice variety of seafood. It’s quick to cook once the seafood is prepped and guaranteed to please every seafood lover. You can make the sauce white or red and once in a while I make it pink with just lobster tails, shrimp and…

Mussels & Sausage in Tomato Broth by Bob Vincent

A simple but tasty dish of mussels and sausage in a rich tomato broth. A nice meal with a salad and good bread for soaking up the sauce. I used cultivated mussels as the fresh at local stores didn't look that good. By all means use live fresh mussels if they are available. With the tomato and sausage in the dish either a red…
