Since we have set up our terrace, we spend most of our time spending time in the sun there. We have grown many plants. It becomes a real jungle. To perfect it all, we installed a plancha of cuisinart. I missed seafood so much, it must be said that it is not so trendy around here so far from the sea. So we treated ourselves to a delicious parillada of seafood. Having the impression of being on a beach vacation in an instant. Feel the smell of salt and the sun that tickles our skin.

Cooking with a plancha reminded me of my adolescence, the father of a friend had a gigantic one on his terrace and he often made us fish.

The plancha is really ideal for all things fish and seafood, the cooking is perfect, simple and healthy. We can accompany them with vegetables and for once on a balanced meal that allows us to fit in our swimsuit.

By cons if we want to grill meat no worries, we also used it as barbecue! Everything is delicious and well grilled!

For a parillada of seafood, you can grill whatever pleases you, as there were only two of us so we limited the quantities and kinds of seafood and fish but the more you are the more you can diversify. The advantage as there are two plates is possible to grill at different powers. For example for scallops it is necessary to sear at high temperature only a few minutes but a fish will cook longer.
