Sauvignon Blanc-Steamed Mussels with Garlic Toasts
Always a staple for our feast of the seven fishes Christmas Eve dinner, this classic white wine muscle recipe is delicious as an appetizer or a full meal.
Steamed Lobster
Many are intimidated when it comes to cooking live lobster but, I’ll be honest with you, I think it’s easier than a lot of cuisines, and steamed lobster is no exception and maybe the easiest, elegant dinner of them all.
Cioppino Seafood Stew
I recently had this out a restaurant and forgot how much I love this low-calorie delicious shellfish meal.
Risotto alla Milanese – Classic Risotto
This is the recipe from the wonderful risotto cooking class Melissa, my mom and I took at the Williams-Sonoma Kitchen in San Francisco. You need to stay near the stove, but the flavor is totally worth it!
Oysters Rockefeller
Oysters Rockefeller consists of oysters on the half-shell that have been topped with a rich sauce of butter, parsley, and spinach and cheese – then baked.
Hot Spiced Shrimp

Linguine with Clam Sauce
Linguine with clam sauce should be packed with flavor: nicely garlicky and a little spicy. Most of all it should taste of fresh, delicious clams with the unmistakable tang of the sea. Fresh, in-the-shell clams are the key to getting this true clam flavor, and tiny littlenecks are the tenderest.
Crab Stuffed Mushrooms
These are a nod to my years in Maryland where I learned to LOVE crab!
