Le cipâte aux fruits de mer

Seafood cipâte

The term used formerly was “sea pie”. The origin of this dish is of Quebec influence. In the first recipes, we found ground fish alternated with rows of onions and pasta. The Brayons modified this dish by replacing the fish with wood meat and interpreted the name as “six pastas”. Here, let's talk about the slightly more original recipe, with seafood!
