Step 1
Use only very fresh fish and fish parts. Remove the gills and scrape the spine clean of any blood.
Step 2
Chop up the fish coarsely, then soak and rinse it to remove off flavors and discoloring.
Step 3
Saute chopped onion, carrots, celery and garlic in canola oil in your stock pot until soft.
Step 4
Add fish parts and saute until opaque.
Step 5
Add just enough cold water and wine to cover the fish pieces. Heat uncovered to a simmer and maintain that; don’t allow it to boil. Simmer the liquid for about 30 minutes.
Step 6
Skim the scum and particles from the surface of the stock as it simmers.
Step 7
After an hour or so, pour the stock through a fine sieve or cheesecloth, careful not to push on the parts.
Step 8
Cool the stock quickly by placing the pot in ice or pouring it into smaller containers that will cool more quickly. Store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator, or, for long-term storage, in the freezer.
