Salmon Soup. Add the onions, garlic, chopped bell peppers and cook tossing regularly for a few minutes. Look for everything to soften and release a beautiful fragrance. Add a bit of the chopped dill and toss around. Add pepper, stir and check if you need to add salt. It will depend in the kind of broth you use.

This lovely salmon soup from Iceland is something of a cross between a chowder and a soup, with just a touch of dairy. It's warming and comforting without being overly heavy, which I like. And what's more, it can be made quite well with the meat left on the racks of salmon or trout, so you waste less. You can have Salmon Soup using 12 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The flavor of this salmon chowder is greatly enhanced by adding either fresh dill or dried tarragon: each herb lends its own distinctively different and appealing character to the soup. Even if you don't keep instant mashed potatoes in your pantry, it's worth picking some up for this soup. They give the soup a thick, chowder texture without any heavy cream or butter. In a large saucepan, saute celery, onion, green pepper and garlic in butter until the vegetables are tender.
