Instructions:
To make the garlic croutons cut crusts from thick day-old bread. Cut bread into large cubes. Spread a cookie sheet with garlic oil - either oil in which whole garlic cloves have been steeped or oil that has been heated gently with a cut garlic clove pressing on clove to release oils. Toss croutons in the garlic oil then bake at 400 F. turning often 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown. If frozen unwrap fish and allow to stand at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes or until soft enough to cut. With a sharp knife cut into 2" cubes. Meanwhile heat oil in a large heavy saucepan. Add prepared onions carrots and celery and saute stirring 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat. Add garlic and saute another 1 or 2 minutes. Add tomatoes (and their juices) stock and wine. Tie bouquet garni spices in a cheesecloth bag and attach with string to pot handle for easy removal. Place in tomato-wine mixture and let come to a boil uncovered. Boil 5 to 10 minutes then reduce heat to low. Add fish cubes and cover pot. Simmer 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve on top of garlic croutons in heated bowls garnished with chopped fennel or parsley.
