Tomato fish soup is a fragrant and rich first course that combines the freshness of roasted tomatoes with the tenderness of cod fillet. This soup originates from Russian cuisine, where tomatoes add a pleasant tang that harmonizes with the mild flavor of fish and the spicy notes of garlic and hot pepper. Historically, such soups were made in coastal regions using available fish and seasonal vegetables. Roasting tomatoes reveals their natural sweetness, while adding greens gives the dish freshness. This soup is perfect for a cozy home dinner or a light yet nutritious lunch. Serving it with rye bread or croutons makes it even more filling. Enjoy your meal!
