- Serves 8
I often just buy the fish heads such as salmon for home made soup. There is quite a lot of meat in the heads and people who cook a lot of fish will often tell you the head has excelent flavor. Loaded with vegetables this soup is delicious and econimical and good enough for company
Ingredients
- 2 large fish heads ( I buy salmon since they are large heads ) shopping list
- extra fish parts and bones ( nice but optional ) shopping list
- 2 stalks celery shopping list
- 2 large carrots shopping list
- 1 large onion shopping list
- one large green bell pepper shopping list
- one large tomato shopping list
- 1 large tomato diced shopping list
- Large bay leaf shopping list
- 2 large cloves of garlic shopping list
- salt, pepper shopping list
- one lemon quartered shopping list
- extra lobster or fish stock paste from a jar. ( I use Better than Bouillion brand ) shopping list
- 1/2 to one cup white wine shopping list
How to make it
- Place fish heads/bones/parts in a large pot and cover with water.
- Add chopped vegetables and quartered lemon.
- Throw in some salt and pepper.
- Bring to a boil and cover and simmer about 20 minutes or until fish is cooked.
- Remove fish and vegetables with a slottered strianer spoon.
- Reserve vegetables, discard lemon.
- Carefully remove as much fish meat as possible from heads and fish parts.
- Place back into the pot with the vegetables and season with the fish, seafood or lobster bouillion paste.
- Add some wine for desired taste
- The flavor improves greatly the next day.
- Note: sometimes I throw in drained canned salmon, albacorre tuna, clams, and if you wish shrimp etc.
