Place a piece of baguette on top of the sauce, and then a large spoonful of the cooked shrimp. Top with the Bouillabaisse Relish. Finish with a spoonful of the Saffron Aioli.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the fennel, onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, for about 10 minutes. Then add the tomatoes, peppers and thyme. Continue to cook and stir for 8 minutes. Add the white wine and cook until it has reduced by half. Then add the fish stock. Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Add the fish and decrease the heat to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the basil and Espelette, then turn off the heat and let cool slightly. Place the sauce into a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

• In small saucepan, heat the saffron threads and 1 tablespoon water to a boil and set aside to cool. Put the garlic in a small bowl with the egg and some pepper and whisk until combined. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, in drops at first and increasing the amount added as the sauce thickens. Add the lemon juice, saffron water and season with salt and pepper.
