Shrimp scampi served with Italian bread is one of my all-time favorite dishes. I grew up in a small port town at the heels of the Mediterranean Sea, known among other things, for its outstanding fish and seafood. When I think back, trying to identify the exact moment I fell inlove with the world of cuisine, I think of ‘Huda brothers’ restaurant’ in my old town. It was situated in the center of an old bronze age theater hall, with magnificent arcs and perfectly rounded ancient stone pillars that seem to reach the sky.
‘Huda brothers’ specialty was obviously fish and seafood. As a young kid, I wasn’t too fond of fish, but shrimp, that was love from first bite. The shrimp scampi there was served in a hot pan, in a lemony, white wine, butter, tomato extra virgin olive oil sauce that you just couldn’t stop going back into. And ofcourse Italian bread, this dish demanded it and I just dipped it in the sauce until I cleaned it from all remanences of that treasured sauce. It was true heaven!
This is my attempt to recreate this magical memory that continues to haunt me to this day.
So… Let’s do this!
