It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
French Bouillabaisse
- add review
- #110851
Like all good French food, this Bouillabaisse is rich and exquisitely flavored. A trinity of sea bass, shrimp, and mussels are balanced out by orange zest and thyme. Good bread to mop up the broth is an absolute must.

1 sprig fennel leaf

5 pounds sea bass
1 pinch saffron threads

directions
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and add the onions, leeks, chopped tomatoes, and garlic. Cook and stir over a low heat for a few minutes until all vegetables are soft.
Stir in the fennel, thyme, bay leaf, and orange zest. Add shellfish and boiling water, stirring to combine. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Turn up the heat to high, and boil for about 3 minutes to allow the oil and water to combine.
Add fish, and reduce the heat to medium. Continue cooking for 12 to 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked. The fish should be opaque and tender, but still firm. Fish should not be falling apart.
Taste the bouillabaisse and adjust the seasoning. Stir in saffron, and then pour soup into a warmed tureen or soup dishes. Serve immediately.
