5 Delicious and Traditional Sauces for Your Seafood Order

The beginning of a wonderful meal is a fresh, succulent seafood order. After that, the niceties are negotiable! Seafood is excellent with simple sauces, like a concoction of flour, butter and white wine, but every culture has put its own stamp on local seafood, usually in sauce form! Today we are discussing several traditional sauce recipes for your fresh seafood order from around the globe; easy inspiration for tonight's dinner.
If you’re familiar with making white sauce or béchamel sauce for use in lasagne, vegetable bakes or a hundred other dishes, this sauce will be a snap. Instead of milk, as in white sauce, it uses fish stock and white wine. There is also some salt in this recipe -- white sauce is usually too bland to benefit from salting.
Chimichurri is a traditional sauce from Argentina, and always uses parsley, oregano and garlic, three herbs and flavors that you are likely to have just lying around in the fridge and pantry. The accessibility of the ingredients makes this a popular sauce -- it is great with online seafood like swordfish steaks, salmon and mahi mahi.
The mouth waters … this recipe tastes like saffron and mustard and is used as a dipping sauce for shrimp online seafood orders, mostly. It is also delicious with crabs and scallops, and anything you would eat on a seafood platter.
If you weren't hungry before you started reading this article, I certainly hope you are now! If not, you have tastebuds of stone. Spanish allioli, or simply aioli, is made with heaps of garlic and olive oil, traditionally ground with a mortar and pestle. You can simply buy aioli in a bottle, or take the easy way out and use a blender. Egg yolks provide an amazing richness -- this is wonderful with pasta seafood orders, like lobster or shrimp ravioli.
Fish-based dishes dominate in Thailand, where people traditionally work the land for a living. Many are close to the coast and they often have to actually catch their own food. Lemongrass and ginger create a very distinctive taste accompaniment to your online seafood, and if you have a miniature food processor, it takes almost no time to whip up.
