Why cooks start here

Cazuela de mariscos is a mixed seafood stew of the coast: mussels, squid, fish, and a tomato broth. It is a Sunday pot when the catch is good.

Cazuela de Mariscos is a beloved coastal stew that graces the tables of seaside towns across Argentina. Traditionally, it is a Sunday affair, when the local fishermen bring in a fresh catch. This dish is a celebration of the ocean's bounty, featuring a medley of mussels, squid, and firm white fish, simmered together in a savory tomato broth. Each spoonful offers a taste of the sea, with the briny mussels complementing the tender fish and squid. The tomato and onion base, seasoned with a hint of paprika, creates a comforting depth, while the olive oil adds richness. Serve it steaming hot, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully, and enjoy a true taste of coastal Argentina.
