Hake Fish Soup
Main Dishes • Global
Description
This is a simple soup despite the number of steps. It doesn't have to be made specifically with hake; you can use any fish, preferably with a low number of bones. In fact, while the fish is cooking, you can prepare the vegetables, thus reducing the cooking time. During cooking, you will likely need to skim the foam more than once, so be attentive, and the soup will be clear. It is better to use fish that has been thawed in advance. Couscous can be replaced with millet, but the cooking time will increase, and to avoid prolonging the process, the millet should be added to the soup along with the sautéed vegetables. After the soup is cooked, you can add freshly chopped herbs.
