Add the onion and leek and cook gently until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for a minute until fragrant, then add the tomatoes, water, herbs, orange peel, saffron, salt and fish bones and shrimp shells. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat so that the broth bubbles slowly without boiling.2Step 2: Cook 30 minutes, then strain the broth into a large bowl or another pot and discard the solids.3Step 3: Pour the broth back into the stockpot and bring to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink, a minute or two. Add the rest of the fish and shellfish, cover and simmer until the mussels or clams open (this will just take a few minutes).4Step 4: Taste the soup and add more salt and freshly ground pepper if needed.5Step 5: Puree the red peppers, cayenne, lemon juice, garlic, breadcrumbs, parsley and salt in a food processor until smooth. Slowly add the olive oil while processing to form a paste.6Step 6: Toast the bread and brush with olive oil.7Step 7: Serve the soup with bread and rouille.getsaucepan.com/r/223875aa-4578-4178-9357-914e561b750b · Original: https://familystylefood.com/julia-childs-bouillabaisse-recipe/
