Sure, braised and slow-cooked meats are nice. But if you’re seeking to lighten your winter cooking, seafood is the gift that keeps on giving. Showcase the best of the ocean’s catch in any number of seafood stew:s Stefano Manfredi’s orzo alla marinara, for example, or Damien Pignolet’s bouillabaisse, plus brodetto and cotriade. See also: scallop pies, Victor Liong’s Sichuan poached fish, and clam chowders. The world’s your oyster.
