Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Cut the onion half into 2 parts. Peel the potatoes and slice them into 5 mm thick slices, then toast the bread: in sunflower oil over medium heat, for 2 minutes on each side, then place on a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 2
Pour 1.5 liters of water into a pot, add the onion, bay leaf, wine, fish, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes, then remove the pot from the heat, cover, and set aside.
Step 3
Rinse the clams under cold water, discarding any with damaged shells or those that do not close immediately when touched. Place them in a pot, add 100 ml of water, cover, and cook over high heat for 5 minutes until they open. Remove the clams with a slotted spoon and discard any that did not open. Strain the broth through a fine sieve into the pot with the fish. Remove the clams from their shells, cover to keep them moist, and set aside.
Step 4
Make the mayonnaise – all ingredients should be at room temperature. Place the yolks in a bowl with the vinegar and a pinch of salt. Lightly whisk with a whisk or fork, then, while continuously whisking, slowly pour in the oil. Taste and add salt if needed.
Step 5
From the pot with the fish, pour off almost all the broth, leaving just enough to cover the fish, into another pot. Add the potatoes and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes until soft. Add more broth if you feel there is not enough soup. Remove the skin and bones from the fish and cut it into pieces.
Step 6
Transfer the mayonnaise to a soup tureen, slowly pour in the soup while stirring to prevent the mayonnaise from separating. Add the potatoes, fish, and clams. Serve the bread separately.
