I'm so glad I found this recipe. I used to always buy store-bought fish stock, but it was always so bland. This homemade stock is so much more flavorful and it makes a huge difference in the taste of my dishes. I will definitely be making this stock

This fish stock is a great way to add flavor to your dishes without having to use a lot of salt. I often use it in place of water when I'm cooking rice or pasta. It adds a subtle seafood flavor that really enhances the dish.

This fish stock is a great way to use up leftover fish scraps. I usually save my fish scraps in the freezer and then use them to make this stock. It's a great way to add flavor to your dishes without having to buy expensive store-bought stock.
