Instructions
- In a large stockpot over medium heat, heat the oil. Add in the shellfish shells, onions, carrots, and celery and saute for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Add in the garlic and cook 3-4 more minutes until fragrant - you are cooking smashed whole cloves so brown the outside.
- Stir in the water, clam juice, tomato paste, wine, bay leaf, thyme and parsely. Add in peppercorns then salt.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour.
- Cool a small spoonful and then taste and see if you need to add more salt. Remove from the heat and strain though a mesh sieve.
- Store in the fridge for 2-3 days or freeze in portions in freezer safe containers for up to 6 months.
Notes
- the white wine gives this a nice bite, but as long as you use the clam juice this doesn't have to have wine in it for flavor
- start with a small amount of salt, then taste-test AFTER you have boiled the shellfish shells
