Sauté the heads and shells using the rest of the Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain and flambé with the brandy. Add it to the cooking pot and leave to cook for about ten minutes.
Blend with a blender, then strain through a sieve. Return to the heat, bring back to the boil and season to taste. Add the cream. Set aside for later.
Lightly fry the seafood meat with a few drops of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain and save as a garnish.

For this recipe, we recommend using Cornicabra Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain because of its balance of bitter and spicy notes that go very well with seafood.But everyone brings their own personal touch to the kitchen, so experiment by using your preferred Olive Oil from Spain.
