We've tried to have seven types of fish in past years, but this time we had only lemon sole and lobsters.
Not this year. But being Italian we do enjoy it when we have it.
NOpe
this one we had canned albacore sandwiches
Again with this question. Give me my veal parmigian!
No. I am not Italian.
yea it was a Christmas party we had all the sea food there claims crabs and shrimp and more
Sounds like too much fried food to me. No, I haven't had the 7 fish thing and I would like to know where in Italy is this tradition followed? I've been in and out of Italy for many many years and have never run across this. I've eaten plenty of fish but never a "Feast of the Seven Fishes for Christmas Eve".
In any case here's what I'd do:
1. Fresh stuffed scallops (in their shell)
2. Baccalà mantecato
3. Linguini with cuttle fish (black pasta)
4. Stuffed calamari
5. Baked grouper
6. Fried small fresh mullet and sardines
7.Octopus salad
Yes, my husband made his incredible seafood lasagna...Sorry, I am not allowed to tell what's in it....
No
