6 to 8 cups water
1 lb mussels, shells scrubbed clean

In a heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium heat, saute onion, garlic, celery, and saffron in olive oil until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato puree, Tabasco sauce, and water. Simmer together 8 minutes longer.

Add mussels, clams, shrimp, fish, parsley, thyme, and orange peel. Simmer together until fish flakes easily and clams open.
