Riz saffrané aux légumes et calamars sur épinards sautés If you don’t like squid, you can use anything you like, such as shrimps, mussels, chicken, etc…I have a little weakness for strange things coming from the sea with tentacles, so you’ll find many recipes on this blog with squid, octopus, [...]

On dit que ca vient de Nice – Soupe de crevettes et polenta I wish I could take the credit for this amazing soup, but unfortunately I cannot.
