Cheese fish soup
4 servings
45 minutes
Cheesy fish soup is an amazing combination of tender fish fillet and creamy melted cheese, offering a rich, enveloping flavor. This recipe originates from Italy, where seafood is often paired with soft cheeses to create a harmonious flavor balance. A light sauté of onion and carrot provides a fragrant base for the dish, while pine nuts add a subtle nutty note. Potatoes make the soup hearty, and fresh dill keeps it light and fresh. The finished soup is perfect for a cozy family dinner or a romantic evening, providing warmth and richness. Serve it with crispy croutons or fresh bread to enhance its depth of flavor.
