Rustic Seafood Stew Kit

Our take on San Francisco’s classic cioppino served in all Hog Island restaurants, now available for you to cook at home! Our Rustic Seafood Stew Kit comes complete with a selection of local seafood and our house-made herby-tomato stew base.

Tasting notes: A luscious, aromatic tomato soup base with just a touch of spice surrounds heaps of our favorite shellfish and seafood.

How it’s made: Our flavorful stew base is made in-house with tomatoes, aromatics, a touch of chili, white wine, and lots of fresh herbs.

Where the seafood is sourced: Our seafood stew kit includes locally caught fish, and shellfish from farms we know and trust along the west coast.

• Live clams and mussels ship fresh and love to be cold, damp, and able to breathe.
