Ina garten's kitchen clambake

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Kielbasa
3 cups Chopped yellow onions
2 cups Chopped well-cleaned leeks;
The white parts only
¼ cup Olive oil
1½ pounds Small potatoes; (red or white)
1 tablespoon Coarse salt
½ tablespoon Freshly-ground black pepper
2 Dozen littleneck clams; scrubbed
1 pounds Steamer clams; scrubbed
2 pounds Mussels; cleaned, debearded
1½ pounds Large shrimp in the shell
3 Lobsters -; (1 1/2 lbs ea)
2 cups Good dry white wine

Directions

Slice the kielbasa diagonally into 1-inch-thick slices. Set aside. Sauté the onions and leeks in the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed 16- to 20-quart stockpot on medium heat for 15 minutes, until the onions start to brown.

Layer the ingredients on top of the onions in the stockpot in the following order: potatoes, salt and pepper, kielbasa, littleneck clams, steamer clams, mussels, shrimp, and lobsters. Pour in the white wine. Cover the pot tightly, and cook over medium-high heat until steam just begins to escape from the lid, about 15 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, and cook another 15 minutes. The clambake should be done. Test to be sure the potatoes are tender, the lobsters are cooked, and the clams and mussels are open.

Transfer the lobsters to a wooden board, cut them up, and crack the claws.

Using large slotted spoons, transfer the seafood, potatoes, and sausages to a large bowl, and top with the lobsters. Strain the broth through a fine sieve; discarding solids. Season the broth to taste, and serve immediately in mugs alongside the clambake. Serves 6 to 8.
