How to cook deliciously - Fish Stock with Root Vegetables
1. Stage
Wash fish bones well under running cold water. With kitchen shears, snip off and discard gills from inside head if still attached, and break or cut all the bones into 3-inch pieces. If bones are bloody, soak in a bowl of cold water 30 minutes, changing the water every 10 minutes.
2. Stage
Drain and rinse the fish bones. Melt the butter in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat and sauté the onion, parsnip, carrot, potato, and celery root until they start to soften, about 7 minutes. Add the water, salt, peppercorns, and bouquet garni and heat to boiling. Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently, partially covered, 30 minutes.
3. Stage
Drain the stock through a colander lined with cheesecloth into another large pot, pressing on the ingredients to extract the juices.
4. Stage
Wash the original pot and add the strained stock. Return to heat and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil until stock is reduced to about 6 cups, about 20 minutes.
