Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Bouillabaisse is an iconic French dish. This recipe takes an Italian twist with a seafood trinity of lobster, rockfish, and shrimp in a tomato-wine broth spiced with saffron, anise seed, and orange zest.

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 leek (white part), chopped fine
2 cloves garlic, minced
5 1/2 cups seeded tomatoes, chopped
6 ounces dry white wine
4 cups fish stock
1/4 teaspoon toasted anise seed
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
2 pinches saffron
3 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/2 pound rockfish fillet, cut in 8 pieces
1/2 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 pound lobster meat, cooked
salt and pepper, to taste
Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the leek and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft.
Add the chopped tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes.
Add the white wine, fish stock, anise seed, orange rind, saffron, and parsley. Let the liquid come to a strong simmer then reduce the heat to a low simmer and let cook for 15 minutes.
Add the fish, shrimp, and lobster. Cover the pan and let simmer for 5 minutes or until the seafood is heated through.
Serve immediately. Adjust the seasoning as needed with salt and pepper.

Delicious recipes for red velvet cakes, cupcakes, and cheesecakes.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
