Velvet fish soup

January 3, 2022

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

January belongs to the citrus. And after the meat-eating period of the holidays, how could this month miss an elegant velvet fish soup with plenty of lemon juice. Next to it are the necessary winter salads with even more lemon juice.

Velvet fish soup

BASIC INGREDIENTS OF THE RECIPE

To enjoy this wonderful velvet fish soup you will need the following necessary ingredients:

  1. Fish suitable for soup 
  2. Vegetables (garlic, onion, potatoes, carrots, celery root)
  3. Lemon
  4. Olive oil
  5. Fresh thyme
  6. White wine
  7. Salt & pepper

While, if you want to give a finer note to your fish soup then all you have to do is add a little Kozani yolk (saffron) organic powder. While optionally you can serve it with edible cappuccino leaves, leaves which have a peppery taste. Finally, if you are one of those who love spicy notes, a little extra red pepper flakes will be ideal.

HOW TO PAIR IT?

As wonderful and delicious as the velvet fish soup is, I personally can not enjoy it without a salad. Ideally, since we are going through the heart of winter, I would suggest to accompany it with cauliflower and boiled cabbage. Both vegetables require a little boiling time and a few drops of lemon are enough to bring them to life.

THE PROCEDURE OF THE RECIPE

This particular recipe for velvet fish soup has very simple and common steps for a soup. The only thing we need to take into account is that fish and vegetables do not have the same cooking time. So what I did was I first cooked the vegetables in a big pot, and in another smaller pot I boiled the fish. Then I strained the water in which the fish boiled and added it to the pot with the vegetables.
