Summer may be coming to an end, but you can enjoy delicious seafood recipes year round. Food & Wine Editor-in -Chief has compiled this list of favorites:
Lobster and Littleneck Clam Bake
Cooking beachside is a ritual in Maine, where hot stones are covered with a blanket of wet seaweed, a layer of lobsters, more seaweed, and steamer clams on top of that. It's all covered with wet burlap to steam, filling the air with a heady, briny aroma that’s unlike anything else. This recipe includes instructions for the beach and at home on the stove.
A Proper Shrimp Boil
Food & Wine Editor-in -Chief Hunter Lewis says the real flavor from a boil comes from a potent cooking liquor, loaded with alliums, lemon, spices, and a bottle each of white wine and clam juice. Influenced by the cooking in North and South Carolina, his recipe calls for wild shrimp, fresh or smoked sausages, fresh shucked corn, and yellow, red, or gold potatoes.
Crawfish Boil
Infuse flavor into sweet crawfish, tender potatoes, sweet corn, and sausage with a super-flavorful broth of clam juice, Cajun seasoning, Old Bay, lemons, garlic, and onions in this recipe from the Food & Wine Test Kitchen.

Seafood is a nutrient-rich food, high in vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids. Yet only one in five Americans eat seafood twice per week, as recommended by the USDA. Eating eight to 12 ounces of seafood per week when pregnant can improve a baby’s IQ, cognitive development, and eye health. Older adults with high fish consumption live an average of 2.2 years longer. And according to a Harvard study, eating eight ounces of seafood each week reduces the risk of dying from heart disease by 36%. So giving these recipes a try can benefit your whole family!
