Seafood Season (Summer)

June 1 – August 31

Summer is prime time for bright, briny seafood cooked fast and served fresh. Grills, boils, and simple steams shine—think lobster rolls, clam bakes, and skewers of shrimp with lemon and herbs. Lean fish like tuna, swordfish, and salmon love quick sears, while ceviche and poke keep things cool. Shop the day you cook, keep seafood well chilled, and avoid overcooking—most pieces need only a few minutes. Pair with tomatoes, corn, cucumbers, and fresh herbs, and finish with olive oil, citrus, and flaky salt for clean, beachy flavors.
