I first made this last Christmas for the Italian Feast of the Seven Fishes, and it was a big hit. Because we had so much food, I only did a small glass for each person and everyone wanted seconds. I have a fondness for bisque from when I was a kid and it's still just so delicious...creamy, briny, and a lovely start to a wonderful meal. Perfect with some nice crispy toasted bread for lunch as well. The sherry gives it a lovely sweetness, and it doesn't even need any cream to make it feel rich (although you can definitely add some!).
