Ingredients:

1 tbsp

Dried Thyme

1.5 tsps

Salt

Directions:

1

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed soup pot, add the onions, leeks, and celery, and saute until translucent, about 6 minutes

2

Add the garlic, tomatoes, saffron, and seasonings

3

Stir about 2 minutes, then add the white wine and cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until almost all the liquid has evaporated, before adding the water

4

Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook 45 minutes

5

At the end of 45 minutes, add the potatoes and cook 20 minutes longer, or until the potatoes are tender

6

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F

7

While the broth is simmering, make the Peppery Croutons: Brush one side of each French bread slice with olive oil, sprinkle with cracked pepper, and toast in the oven until crisp (about 12 minutes)

8

After the potatoes have simmered 20 minutes, add the fish

9

Reheat to just below a boil and cook at a strong simmer 3 to 5 minutes, until the fish is cooked but not yet flaking apart

Remove the bay leaves, taste for seasoning, and serve immediately, garnished with Peppery Croutons
