Seafood Bisque (Newpaper clipping)



Seafood Bisque

This recipe was torn out of a newspaper, date unknown and found in an old cookbook. 

"Lima Oneto generously shared her recipe for the most delicious (and the richest) seafood bisque I have ever tasted..."

1 lb. each: oysters, shrimp, crabmeat and scallops
1/2 lb butter
2 quarts half and half
Seasonings to taste

Saute seafood in melted butter in heavy saucepan or thick, deep skillet. Add half and half and seasonings and blend, heating slowly to simmering stage; do not boil.  Thicken with mixture of flour and water if needed.  Just before serving, add sherry.  Serve piping hot.

Yield: 12-14 servings.
