Cooks Note: Lacking fish broth, you could tie 1 or 2 small fish heads or the shells from the shrimp in a cheesecloth bag; add it to the pot along with 2 cups of water when adding the tomatoes and wine. There should be enough water to cover all the ingredients. Simmer, removing the bag prior to adding the shellfish and fish.
