"This Tuscan soup traditionally uses fish considered "bottom of the boat"—those left behind after more valuable fish have sold. The base is octopus, squid, tomatoes, wine, garlic, sage, and dried red chiles; other fish are added at the end of cooking, before the soup is served over garlic-rubbed bread. —Emily Wise Miller, from "Livorno's Pride" (April 2008)..."
