Seafood bisque is a smooth, creamy, and highly seasoned soup of French origin. Recipes call for a strained broth of crustaceans. Use seafood such as lobster, crab, shrimp, or crayfish.
The name "Bisque" is most likely derived from Biscay, as in the Bay of Biscay. However, the crustaceans are unquestionably bis cuites, implying "twice-cooked." Cooks must first sauteed the seafood lightly in their shells, then simmered in wine or cognac, and aromatic herbs before being strained.
This rich and filling soup goes well with a crusty piece of bread.. Serve it as the start of a larger meal or the meal itself. For your bisque, try Gewurztraminer with your wine.
