finnish salmon soup is the best comfort food I think, you made it very well

Thank you so much I love this soup, I've eat it in Finland

You got it right!

Good. One of the few recipes where it's actually made as it's supposed to :D I skip the broth making part. I just fry the leeks, carrots and potatoes in butter and the add water and the stock cubes. Less dishes :D

You can basicly use any fresh water fish in that soup. Now that the summer is near. Next dish you should make fried muikku and new summer potatoes. Just remember to use the smallest potatoes. They are so good and sweet. I eat them with bit of butter and salt.

My family recipe calls for generous amount of butter when cooking the carrots and onion/leak, also personally I like to use half and half of fish and vegetable stock. The vegetable stock rounds out the flavor profile nicely. Totally gets my authentic seal of approval if that's what you meant if you would do something differently.

Looks really good. I will try to probably make it for myself only because my family doesn't like salmon. They think it has a very strong flavor. Or maybe like you said, I'll try half salmon and half white fish (maybe cod).

Soup looked very authentic. One note though: you forgot butter! It is a vital ingredient in this dish. You can't add too much of it... :) Sometimes I also add cream cheese, Koskenlaskija or something similar to the soup. It thickens the soup nicely.

Traditionally ... or as much as I know about Finnish traditions, Im an Estonian and fish soup is a classic - traditionally onion and carrot are not cooked before because they go into the stock - the part that you completely skipped! The best fish soup comes when you actually put in the effort and cook a broth with fish heads and spines and use the meat from the said heads. Next level flavour profile. Try it. We both know fish stock cubes dont compare ;) But, I think youre right in a way - if I make the stock and dont use the onion and carrot from the stock, but make a separate butter fried carrot/onion mix, I think this will add even more depth to the flavour. Now lets see if youre going to use white wine or lemon. And the eggs and sourcream. Or perhaps, vodka?

Salmon soup? 😬 not so sure about that one ruining my salmon steaks. But I still enjoy your channel recipes.
