Ingredients

3-4 whole sole fish, snapper, or rockfish include heads

2 tablespoons Butter

2 whole Onions Chopped

1 whole carrot chopped

6 sprigs Fresh thyme

6 sprigs Fresh parsley

1 whole Bay leaf

1/2 Cup Dry white wine

1/4 cup Vinegar

3 quarts Cold Filtered Water


Directions

Melt butter in a large stainless steel pot. Add the vegetables and cook very gently, about 1/2 hour, until they are soft. Add wine and bring to a boil. Add the fish carcasses and cover with cold water. Add vinegar. Bring to a boil and skim off the scum and impurities as they rise. Tie herbs together and add to the pot. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for at least 4 hours or as long as 24 hours. Remove carcasses with tongs or a slotted spoon and stain the liquid into pint-sized storage containers for fridge or freezer. Chill well in the fridge and remove any congealed fat before transferring to freezer for long term storage.
