"In Greece we call it the soup of fishermen or kakavia, and as we all can imagine it is their favourite soup, as well as mine😄😄😄. Fishermen do not use salt because they use sea water to cook the traditional soup. They mix up all the ingredients together and boil in high heat for 40 min. If you don't like the fish smell I suggest to cook the stock with the lid open. This way stock will not have any smell but all the taste remains in."
