Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 large yellow or sweet onion peeled and diced
- 8 ribs celery diced
- 1 lb waxy potatoes not russet, cut into large cubes
- 6 cups water
- salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste *see note
- 1 pound sustainably caught firm white fish such as cod halibut or haddock, cut into large cubes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup minced flat leaf parsley loosely packed
Notes
- Season generously. Simple ingredients like water and potatoes requires more salt than you might think. I find 2 tablespoons of Diamond brand Kosher salt provides the perfect seasoning, but different types of salt will vary.
- Avoid cooking the fish too long. Ten minutes is more than enough time for the fish to cook through. The longer it cooks, the more it will flake apart and melt into the soup.
- If you want a thicker soup, mix together ¼ cup of flour with ¼ cup of water, add it to the soup and let it boil for 2-3 minutes before adding the fish.
- This soup is even better after it sits overnight. Be sure to make enough for leftovers!
