Fish Stock

AuthorMartin
 500 g Fishbones with Head
 1 Onion white
 1 Carrot
 2 Stalks of Celery
 1 Leek
 1 Bayleaf
 1 tsp Corianderseeds
 1 tsp Black Pepper Corns
 3 l Water
1

Soak the fish carcasses for about 20 minutes or overnight in cold water. This will remove any blood residues and impurities.

2

Cut the vegetables into mirepoix (large dice) (onion, carrot, celery stalks) and add spices like bay leaf, peppercorns, and coriander seeds.

3

Now you can decide whether you want to sauté the vegetables first or add them directly to the pot with the fish carcasses and water.

4

When the fish stock starts to boil, let it simmer gently for about 20-30 minutes over low heat. If foam forms on the surface, skim it off several times to obtain a clear fish stock.

5

Then strain the stock through a sieve lined with a cheesecloth, without pressing down on the solids.
