50 minutes

Cheese cream soup with seafood in fish broth is an exquisite dish of European cuisine that combines the tenderness of cream, the rich flavor of seafood, and the piquancy of cheese. Its roots lie in the traditions of French gastronomy, where cream soups are a symbol of sophistication. The velvety texture, creamy aroma, and marine freshness make this soup perfect for cozy dinners or festive lunches. The pleasant balance of salty notes from shrimp and mussels is harmoniously complemented by the softness of melted and hard cheese, while a pinch of greens adds freshness to the dish. This soup not only warms but also provides gastronomic pleasure, awakening memories of the coast and sea breeze. Serve with crispy baguette to enhance flavor nuances and create a perfect combination of textures.
