Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Peel and chop the shallots, garlic, carrots, celery, and potatoes into small, bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Clean the Mussels

    Rinse the mussels under cold running water, scrubbing the shells to remove any debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

Cooking the Soup

  1. 3

    Sauté the Base Ingredients

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add the Vegetables

    Stir in the chopped carrots, celery, and potatoes. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 5

    Pour in the Fish Stock

    Add the fish stock to the pot, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Adding Seafood and Seasoning

  1. 6

    Incorporate the Seafood

    Add the cleaned mussels, white fish, and shrimp to the pot. Stir gently and let it cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened and the fish is cooked through.

  2. 7

    Enhance the Flavor

    Pour in the brandy and Riesling wine, then stir in the heavy cream. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.

  3. 8

    Finish with Fresh Dill

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the fresh dill before serving.
