Salmon Soup For A Cold Wet Day

The rain clouds have rolled in overnight here in British Columbia, and the weather has turned colder; the rain is expected to last all day too.

Fortunately, we have just the recipe to keep warm - Salmon Head Miso Soup !

Soak a Salmon head that has been thoroughly cleaned in lemon & salt water for several minutes. While waiting for the Salmon, prepare the soup with two heap tablespoons of miso paste, crushed garlic and ginger, a bowl of chicken stock & a bowl of water.


When the soup comes to a full boil, gently add in the Salmon head and let it cook for five minutes before turning it over in the pot. Boil for another five minutes, then throw in some carrot slices to add color. Turn down the heat to let the soup simmer for at least 20 minutes in order to achieve a thick flavorful soup. Garnish with slices of spring onions.

Ahhh . . . warm & comfortable at last . . .
