Cost information for the following is not included. Normally this is because the quantity or ingredient is unknown
2 8oz bottles of Snow's Clam juice. In a previous recipe, shrimp was an ingredient and I suggested saving the shrimp shells by freezing them. If I have frozen shrimp shells on hand I make shrimp broth by naturally de-thawing the shells before I leave for the office. I follow one of the many recipes for making shrimp broth that are on-line. I like to take ideas from each recipe to make my own.
3 fillets of fresh or frozen cod, I use the Treasures from the Sea brand available at Sams Club. Fresh cod and other types of fish is pricey here in beautiful southern NM. I cut the filets in half lengthwise and then into a medium chop. You can use any type of white fish but we like cod because it provides a "meaty" texture to the dish.
Garlic is optional, most of the time I press 4 or 5 cloves into the broth once all the other ingredients are in the pot and well mixed
