Suggest a better description1. In a large pot, put the Salmon bones with head, the onion, 1 carrot, a teaspoon of salt, whole peppercorns and water then bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Skim off any impurities or foam.
2. Strain the soup through a cheesecloth inside a colander (over a large bowl) the ensure the broth is clear and free of impurities. Discard the Salmon bones and vegetables, or give the fish to your cat.
3. In a frying pan, melt butter and sauté the leeks until they soften. Set aside.
4. Return fish stock to the pot and add the chopped potatoes, sautéed leeks, 2 sliced carrots and bay leafs. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.
5. Add the boneless Salmon pieces, which should be cut in approx 2" cubed pieces. If the pieces are cut too small and thin, they will fall apart. Cook for about 10 minutes. Add whipping cream and stir.
Add chopped dill, season with salt and pepper according to taste. This recipe loves black pepper.
Garnish with chopped green onion or parsley.
Recipe Notes
Optional - can add 2 celery sticks when cooking the fish stock, as its a taste people like in soups but wasn't in the original fish soups. For additional depth, can add Vegeta Seafood Stock powder for seasoning. If you don't have leek, use a finely chopped small onion. You can also thicken this soup with cornstarch and water for a thicker consistency. I suggest 3-4 tablespoons of cornstarch mixed with 5 tablespoons of water, then added to pot.
