A great remedy to a rainy day. Bergen is the second largest city in Norway, known for its rainy weather and short winter days. Traditionally, the soup is made with stock from young pollock.
Bring fish stock to a boil in a large pot. Add the vegetables, reduce the heat, and let simmer for 5 minutes.
If you are using the flour, whisk in flour together with the cream in a small bowl, add the cream to the soup, and bring to a boil. Add the sugar and vinegar to taste; the soup should have a subtle sweet-and-sour flavor. Add salt to taste. Add the fish and fish dumplings, bring to a boi, reduce the heat, and simmer for 7 to 8 minutees, until the fish is just cooked.
In the meantime, whisk together the egg yolks and sour cream in a small bowl. Pour the soup into bowls, dividing the fish and dumplings evenly. Gently stir 2 to 3 tablespoons of the sour cream mixture into each bowl. Sprinkle with chives, if desired, and serve.
Fish Dumplings
Run the fish through a meat grinder twice: it should be very fine and smooth. (You can also use a food processor, although it can be more diffiicult to get a smooth consistency that way.)
In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the cornstarch, salt, pepper, and fish and mix well. gently fold the cream into the fish mixture, trying not to deflate cream.
With a spoon, form the dumpling mixture into small balls.
