Fish soup

Fish soup is a warm food made by combining fish or seafood with vegetables and stock, juice, water, or another liquid. Hot soups are additionally characterized by boiling solid ingredients in liquids in a pot until the flavors are extracted, forming a broth.

Ingredients

Typically, a fish soup includes fish, seafood, vegetables, and a broth. The fish and seafood can include a variety of species, such as salmon, cod, shrimp, and clams. The vegetables can include onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes. The broth is typically made from water, fish stock, or a combination of the two.

Preparation

The preparation of fish soup can vary greatly depending on the recipe. However, most fish soups involve the following steps:

1. Preparing the fish and seafood: This can involve cleaning, descaling, and filleting the fish, as well as cleaning and preparing any other seafood.
2. Preparing the vegetables: This typically involves washing, peeling, and chopping the vegetables.
3. Cooking the soup: This usually involves sautéing the vegetables in a pot, adding the fish and seafood, and then adding the broth. The soup is then simmered until the fish and seafood are cooked and the flavors have melded together.

Varieties

There are many different varieties of fish soup, each with its own unique combination of ingredients and preparation methods. Some of the most popular varieties include:

• Bouillabaisse: A traditional Provençal fish stew originating from the port city of Marseille.
