Steps:
- Place all ingredients in a stock pot or a large saucepan.
- Pour over enough COLD water to cover the stock ingredients; bring to a boil over high heat, then gently simmer at least 4 hours, preferably 8 hours, replenishing the water as needed to keep about 1 quart of liquid in the pan.
- The pot may be covered or set a lid askew on it.
- Strain, cool and refrigerate until needed.
- If you are short on time, using a stock simmered for just 20-30 minutes is still better than using just water in any recipe calling for seafood stock.
- If you want a richer stock, start with at least 2 cups of the strained basic stock and continue to simmer it until the liquid is reduced by half (for one cup of rich stock).
