Fish & Seafood

Octopus and Potato Salad Insalata di polpo e patate

Octopus and potato salad is a favorite dish all along the Italian coast. You can find it in practically every Tuscan and Ligurian port. Cleaning the octopus involves removing the eyes, beak, and innards, and rinsing under cold water—this is often already done when bought from a fishmonger or at a supermarket or if you have bought it frozen, but at my fresh-off-the-boat fisherman’s shop front, they are just as they were pulled out of the water.

Salmon

Easy Salmon Pie is a comforting, savory dish combining flaky salmon with creamy filling, all baked inside a buttery crust. Simple to prepare, it’s perfect for a satisfying family meal or cozy dinner.
