Cioppino (from
Ligurian : cioppin) is a
fish stew originating in
San Francisco , California, an
Italian-American cuisine related to various
fish soups in
Italian cuisine .
Cioppino is traditionally made from the catch of the day, which in San Francisco is typically a combination of dungeness crab , clams , shrimp , scallops , squid , mussels , and fish, all sourced from the Pacific. The seafood is then combined with fresh tomatoes in a wine sauce.

The dish can be served with toasted bread, either local
sourdough or French bread. The bread acts as a starch, similar to a pasta, and is dipped into the sauce.
Generally the seafood is cooked in broth and served in the shell, including the crab, which is often served halved or quartered. It therefore requires special utensils, typically a
crab fork and
cracker . Depending on the restaurant, it may be accompanied by a bib to prevent food stains on clothing, a damp napkin and a second bowl for the shells. A variation, commonly called “lazy man’s cioppino”, is served with shells pre-cracked or removed.
