Salmon belly soup
Description
The soup is easy and quick to prepare. Here is an amazing recipe for fish soup. Remember Krylov's lines: "What a broth, so rich and fine, as if covered with a layer of amber." This is truly a delicious dish made with minimal expense. Fish bellies cost significantly less than the whole fish, making them an optimal choice, as in terms of fat content and amino acids, this part of the fish is in no way inferior to salmon steak. Preparation won't take much time, yet the result will exceed all expectations. Serve the soup hot.
