Looks and tastes beautiful...i ended up adding a 1/4 cup white wine for extra broth (personal preference). The recipe is very versatile too...add fish, remove shrimp, add extra mussles, etc. and its still fantastic.10/29/09

I made this for my husband tonight and he liked it. He loves spicy food, so I added more crushed red pepper than the recipe called for (@ 1.5 teaspoon). I also did not have any parsley. I know that the normal substitute for parsley is cilantro (which I didn't have either), so I used 1/2 teaspoon basil and 1/2 teaspoon oregano (store bought in a glass jar). With these changes, I thought the broth was fantastic. The only changes I would make would be to add more seafood into the dish. A great crusty bread is a must for this dish!! Enjoy!!10/27/09
