Clam and Calamari Seafood Stew with Salsa VerdeElinor Carucci

The stew is perked up with an Italian-style salsa verde, a mixture of chopped fresh herbs and olive oil. Have the bass filleted at the fish counter. You'll need the bones, skin, and head to make the stock, so be sure to request that those parts be saved for you. You may want to consider toasting more bread to sop up all the flavorful broth.

Ingredient tip:

Cerignolas are large green Italian olives. They are brinecured and have a delicate, sweet taste. Castelvetranos are medium-size brinecured green olives grown primarily in Sicily near their namesake town. They are mildly sweet and salty. Both types of olives are available at some supermarkets and at specialty foods stores.
