Cioppino Soup


This fresh seafood stew originated in San Francisco in the late 1800s by Italian fishermen who settled in the North Beach area. This tasty treat is perfect for cold rainy days and excellent as leftovers the next day.

Originally thrown together on the boats while fishermen were out to sea, this Italian stew later became a staple as Italian restaurants became a hit on the mainland. Cioppino came from ciuppin meaning “to chop” or “chopped”.

6 finely chopped garlic cloves

1 chopped medium yellow onion

1/2 finely chopped bell pepper
