How to deliciously cook perch soup at home. Amber rich perch soup. Homemade fish soup with added millet

Perch soup needs to be cooked for 15 minutes to make it rich , while the fish itself, after the broth boils, should be cooked for no more than 5-7 minutes so that it does not lose its beneficial properties and does not lose its taste.


You can see how to quickly clean perches for fish soup if you click on this photo and thus go to the post dedicated to cleaning fish: just like small fish, large perches are also cleaned. Let us pay attention to the main thing in this process: we only need to clean the insides and remove the gills, while we leave the scales, tails, fins and heads in the fish, otherwise instead of fish soup we will get a thin fish soup, which can turn out to be very tasty, but not being an ear.
To show step-by-step and with photographs each operation of preparing fish soup, we will take three medium-sized perches for better visibility. However, we remember that the smaller the perch, the richer and more classic the fish soup.

We put the pan with the cleaned fish on the fire, while the water should cover the fish by 1-1.5 cm , no more, because, as a cook I know from a well-known restaurant in St. Petersburg likes to say: “The fish swims in the lake, but it’s cooked in the pan.”


When foam appears, reduce the heat and skim off the foam from the fish soup. There is a lot of discussion among fishermen about whether or not to remove the foam from fish soup. My husband and dad once had a fight about this. The question of the fate of the foam on the ear was the only time they categorically disagreed.


In this case, we put some of the ingredients immediately into fish soup boiled for a total of no more than 7 minutes after we removed the foam:
1 tablespoon dill, dried
5 black peppercorns
2 bay leaves


In my fish soup recipe there are very serious differences from the classic one: firstly, I put carrots, cut into slices, and secondly, I cut the potatoes quite finely, that is, into cubes 2 by 2 cm.
V. Pokhlebkin, creaking his heart, allows one large potato, in extreme cases cut in half, but is categorically against carrots.
So, we cut the vegetables and put a bowl in the sink containing a colander with a fine mesh.


After 7 minutes of boiling, drain the broth through a fine mesh colander: this way there won’t be a single flake or bone left in our rich ear. Peppercorns, bay leaves and most of the dry dill also remain in the colander.


Then we cook our chopped vegetables in fish broth until half cooked, while at the same time starting to clean the fish in order to separate the fish from bones and scales. There is no need to be afraid of the “second” cleaning of the fish: it is done very easily and quickly.


Cleaning hot fish when it has just been boiled should only be done with thick cooking gloves. If you don’t have gloves, you can wait until it cools down, but then you need to turn off the vegetables boiling in the broth.
For fish soup, only the backs are used, from which we remove the scales by easily running a finger. There is no need to touch particularly bony parts of the fish: we take only those pieces where there are no bones - along the ridge.


Throw the pieces of fish separated from the bones into the fish soup with half-cooked vegetables and cook for another 3 minutes until the vegetables are ready.
And here I salt the fish soup, and a little, because in our family I’m the only one who likes salty.


And this is what the fish soup we cooked in 15 minutes looks like on the table. And the salt shaker, in accordance with the Russian folk proverb, is located in a place of honor in the center: under-salting on the table, and over-salting on the back.

And yet it is believed that the most delicious is the triple fish soup, when the amount of fish is divided into three parts, the broth is boiled with one part of the catch, filtered, the second part of fresh fish is put in it, and so on three times.
And when they talk about “royal” fish soup, then, despite the many recipes, they usually mean that pieces of other, more noble fish are added to the triple fish soup from perches.


However, we will do the royal and triple when ours, and in this particular case in the plate there is a very tasty and rich single fish soup, although we had three perches.

How to cook sea bass soup

Pour 2 liters of water into a saucepan and put on fire. I also add a dry mixture of white roots (parsnips, parsley, celery), but this is optional. You can chop fresh parsley and celery roots.

While the water is boiling, clean the perch, remove the black film from the belly and cut into pieces. If you want, immediately cut the fish into portions, but I don’t like bones in soup, and my two-year-old son eats fish soup with us, so I first cut the fish into two parts. Next, I will take it apart into pieces and remove the seeds.

Place pieces of fish into boiling water and cook after boiling for 10 minutes over medium heat.

In the meantime, peel the potatoes, wash them and cut them into arbitrary pieces.

Cut the onion into small cubes and the carrots into half rings or quarter rings.

Heat the oil in a frying pan and sauté the onions and carrots until the onions are translucent.

Remove the fish pieces from the broth and strain the broth. Bring to a boil again, add potatoes to the boiling broth, and a few minutes after the potatoes boil, add carrots and onions. Cook for 15 minutes until the potatoes are almost completely cooked.

Divide the fish into small pieces, removing the bones.

Return the pieces of fish to the fish soup, add bay leaves, peppercorns and salt. Cook for 3-5 minutes.
