中国系スーパーで買った日本の真鯛みたいな丸ごとのRed Snapper(フエフキダイ科の魚)とアサリで作ったアクアパッツアです。オリーブオイルとイタリア産の白ワイン(ソアーベ等の辛口が良い)、水を耐熱皿に注ぎ、刻んだニンニクと黒オリーブ、サンドライトマト、赤唐辛子そして塩コショウを入れてオーブンで加熱し、良いスープ様になったところで内蔵、エラ、ウロコを取り除いた丸ごとの魚とアサリを入れ、再びオーブンで加熱。アサリが開き、魚がさっと蒸されたところで取り出し、塩コショウを軽く振ってから刻んだイタリアンパセリをばさっとふりかけて耐熱皿ごと食卓に出しました。さっぱりと味のついた魚と貝を食べ尽くしたあとの、魚介の旨味が出た残り汁に茹でたてのスパゲッティを入れて食べるのがまた美味。
Made this aqua pazza (Italian for "crazy water") with a whole red snapper and Manila clams purchased at a local Chinese supermarket. Heated a mix of olive oil, dry white wine (an Italian Soave would be nice), and water seasoned with salt and pepper in an ovenproof dish with chopped garlic, sun dried tomatos, and red pepper flakes until it reaches a nice broth-like state, then added the whole fish (cleaned and gutted, but on the bone) and clams, heated some more until the clams open and the fish is cooked through. Seasoned to taste with salt and pepper, then sprinkles a handful of chopped Italian parsley before serving. After enjoying the mildly flavored fish and clams, throw some freshly cooked spaghetti into the broth and toss lightly for a delicious pasta dish infused with the umami from the fish and clams.
