INGREDIENTS

2 lb salmon frames and heads, gills removed
1 onion, quartered
2 celery sticks, chunked
1 carrot, chunked
2 bay leaves
1 tsp black peppercorns
1 cup dried nettle (or 2 cups fresh, blanched)
3 quarts cold water
Salt

METHOD

Rinse the frames well under cold water to remove any blood.
Put everything except the nettle and salt in a tall pot and cover with the cold water.
Bring slowly to a bare simmer and skim carefully for the first 10 minutes.
Hold at a bare simmer for 45 minutes. Do not boil, or it turns cloudy and bitter.
Add the nettle and steep off the heat for 15 minutes.
Strain through a fine sieve, season with salt, and cool quickly if storing.
