Preparation

In a big sauce pan at medium heat, melt the butter and add the onion, leek and celery. Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 10 minutes, while stirring often, until vegetables are tender.
Add the port and white wine then stir well to go grab all those flavors! Reduce for 4 minutes.
Add the broth, tomato concentrate, safran and red wine vinegar then stir well. Bring to a boil then lower heat. Gently simmer for 20 minutes.
Add the fish, shrimps and tomatoes then simmer for 5 minutes. Stir well.
Remove from heat and wait 1 or 2 minutes so that it stops boiling. Stir in the cream. Serve with warm bread and butter!

Our sommeliers suggest

Anselmi San Vincenzo

Texture, freshness and notes of exploding ripe fruits. A wine from the regular directory that I buy often since it's that good! See the product

Saison Framboise, Dunham

Dare to try a raspberry beer! It will be a great pairing with the tomatoes, the red wine vinegar and the port in this dish. The Saison yeast will bring a peppery touch to the soup. The light acidity of this beer will evoke the one in the dish. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
