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
1/2 cup cooking sherry

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.
