Cooking Tips

• For a richer flavor, you can use fish stock instead of chicken broth.
• Feel free to add other vegetables like peas or corn for extra color and texture.
• If you prefer a chunkier soup, you can skip the pureeing step and leave the vegetables as they are.

Storage and Serving

• Serve the salmon soup as a starter with crusty bread or as a main course with a side salad.
• Garnish the soup with a dollop of sour cream or a squeeze of lemon juice for added freshness.
• To reheat the soup, simply heat it gently on the stovetop, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
