Creamy Finnish Salmon Soup

Delicious lohikeitto or Finnish salmon soup. Enjoy it! Incredibly tender, satisfying, healthy and even medicinal fish soup with a pleasant creamy taste. Indispensable for restoring strength when suffering from a cold. Can be eaten both cold and hot. The idea to make this soup came to me in connection with the purchase of sockeye salmon for baking. We needed fish fillets, and the bones and fins were suitable for broth. Sockeye salmon is a low-fat fish and only creamy soup is good. I offer the recipe to Khrum residents

Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
This tasty and healthy Sakhalin fish of the salmon family, sockeye salmon

Step 2

Step 2
Wash, clean, fillet

Step 3

Step 3
Cut the tail part into small pieces. We leave the rest of the fillet for another dish.

Step 4

Step 4
Fill the fins, ridge and tail with cold water, bring to a boil, skim off the foam, add the onion, bay leaf, peppercorns and cook after boiling for 25 minutes. We filter. Remove small pieces of fish from the bones and reserve, then add to the almost finished soup. You can cook the soup in water, but add a piece of butter at the end of cooking

Step 5

Step 5
While the broth is cooking, cut the leeks into half rings and simmer them a little in olive oil.

Step 6

Step 6
Slicing potatoes

Step 7

Step 7
Chop the dill. Prepare cream and potato starch. Instead of starch, you can use fried flour or boil more potatoes and mash them. The soup should be the desired thickness

Step 8

Step 8
Pour broth over the stewed onions, add potatoes, salt, pepper and cook until almost done. Add pieces of sockeye salmon and cook after boiling for 5 minutes. No more, if you overcook the fish it will be tough and dry. Add pieces of fish from the broth, pour cream and starch diluted in a small amount of water into the soup. Stir, bring to a boil, add dill and turn off.

Step 9

Step 9
Let it brew for about 10 minutes. (While I left it to steep, my husband managed to pour himself a bowl. He loves this soup.) Pour into plates, garnish with dill and enjoy. Bon appetit!
