The Messy, Saucy Shrimp Stew – That Stole Our Hearts
, 17. August 2025.
If you’ve been around here for a while, you’ve met Krsto — the captain of our stove when shrimp is involved. This stew has been on heavy rotation in our home since our daughter Luca could hold a spoon… and then promptly ditch it to eat with her hands.
It’s the kind of dish that doesn’t just feed you, it takes over the table. By the time we’re done, the plates are empty, the bread basket is a memory, and everyone’s fingers are stained with that deep, red sauce.
