Sir, I´m originally from Nice, south of France, Côte-d´Azur. I learned with 10 years how to make fish soup from my mother, who was a brillant cook, and I must say that the soup you´re preparing is very close to a perfect Provençal fish soup; it´s just a pitty that you´re missing some fish species we find in the south of France (moray eel, St. Peter´s fish and scorpion fish for example). Well done anyway. I´m probably the same age as you.
Superb as always. Please in the name of god give the man a Knighthood already. I lived in Cannes for a while and there is nothing quite so fine as a fish soup with croutons and a bottle of good Provencal Rose....applause to the French for their wonderful passion for food and wine. Always a total joy to see Rick cooking....He is National Treasure!
I love how authentic he is about what actually goes into the soup! It's the things traditionally made from leftovers that weren't sold or were going bad. It was a meal that got poor people through in tough times. Using lower quality ingredients just feels like such a great sign of respect for the spirit of this dish! Fish starting to smell? Found a really cheap deal at the supermarket for some fish? Found some frozen fish at the bottom of the freezer you forgot about? SOUP!
Rick Stain is best fish and shellfish recipes Chef for me and not only for cooking, also for storys in his cooking trips series.. At the end product soup I always add couple pieces of fillet cubes and let them seat couple minutes then serve it as it is above.. I really love that french I think fish soup.. All the best
Nice. You can make a great variation on this by adding a little pastis such as Pernod or Ricard, which boosts the fennel flavour. Even better use it as a base for a fish and shellfish stew with chunks of fish poached in the soup, and then shellfish such as prawns and mussels. A little double cream rounds it off beautifully.
I just tried this lovely recipe using all the veggie stuff that I could find in my fridge and the odd bit of fish lurking at the back of the freezer. Even found a tired looking courgette which went in. Mimicking the master I also managed to splash my polo shirt even though I was using a ladle when it came to squeezing out all the juices. In fact I still have the pulp and will try a third pressing tomorrow. Oh, and the tips for making the rouille were spot on. All good!! Merci!
Fish soup is absolutely lovely my problem would be going to Ricks seafood restaurant and ive looked at menu online id want to at least order 6 starters and 5 mains just for myself lol as everything is lovely 😊😊😊
Rick I am nadeem from Pakistan I love your recipe I am make also channel for cultural food exchange recipes project through international school students and teachers because I am also head teacher for growing global information through this I am lot of partners in UK 🇬🇧 we work through this school under British Council project for connecting class room project 😀
Lovely recipe but... fish stock? No doubt a fish restaurant has lots of bones available, but domestic cooks will have to make a point of filleting their own fish for several meals just to make stock. Fishmongers should have a surplus of bones and heads, but most won't sell them, presumably because of elf'n'safety or something.

Great ‘Jazz after Dark’ background music … a Jazz festival in Padstow perchance? Lovely recipe will be trying out soon….❤

Can smell it very nice 👌, good chef 🧑🍳

Great recipe, looks delicious. You need a apron Rick to save your shirts!!!
Added to my to do list
Top recipe as ever, thanks Rick! I always try to add some Richard at the end adds a really nice flavour…french friend put me on to it!
Looks delicious.
Looks delicious ,
I love this fish soup its amazing. Is there any chance before xmas of new content Rick as no new recipes up for a while
what other broth could you use other than fish broth?
Sensational. Question. What is Rui?
I like it thicker. Pretty sure when I've had it in both Northern and Southern France, it's a lot thicker? I'll make mine thicker!
Rick please show us how to make a lobster and prawn bisque thanks 😊
thanks mr stein .from baker scqf level 6.
I make this once a year or so. Adding a splash of pernod. It's quite a bit of work; a food mill is indispensable for the final pureeing of the soup.
just "yes" from me.
Scrod- "sailors catch reserved on deck""!!!

The only issue i have a tall with the which i absolutely think looks lovely the croutons look like they have been bought from tesco
with whats left over after the passing could chuck a few eggs in & bit flour & make Mediterranean fish patties..can't waste that
I was thinking similar. Some type of fish cakes. A lot of good nutrition gone to waste otherwise.
Cullen Skink any day.
Seems like a lot of waste of good fish. Is there any recipe to use up this pulp?
Not so good! But so good 👍
🤤🤤🤤
I'll add flour and egg into that residual of meat, turn it into fish balls.
Is the music in the background intentional or is it next door's radio. Absolutely not needed. Distracting from what's going on
When you make your own food recipe video you can decide what music you want, until then shut up
Joe get a grip!

Agree entirely - so annoying. It sounds like its the Padstow Jazz Festival in full swing

The orange inclusion surprised me
If the purpose is to mash and strain it why not just add whole fish
Why use filleted fish if you’re gonna blend it anyway? Makes no sense at all.
It's left overs.... What hasn't sold and is needing to be sold..."chefs special"... He even explains at the start..
Yes
Borderline scandalous making soup from all that good food.
Yeah man, loose the tunes, sounds of cooking and mr stein’s dulcet voices are the be#t music
