Winter is coming and one of my family's favourite soups is this seafood soup. ( not mine I hate seafood)

For the stock I use salmon heads which I usually pick up from the fish shop for under $5. It's full of omega 3
The great thing with this hearty soup is you can add just about whatever seafood you want.
Serves 8
