Lohikeitto: Finnish Salmon Soup

| Seafood Soups

Lohikeitto, a Finnish salmon soup, is certainly not one of the more widely known seafood soup recipes. But it has many similarities to the more popular fish chowder.

Simple Samlar Machu (Cambodian Sour Soup) Recipe

| Asian Soups

I wish there was a better English translation for Samlar Machu (also spelled Samlor Machu) which in Khmer, the language spoken in Cambodia, translates as “sour soup.” That’s because Samlar Machu is really not THAT sour and there’s a lot more going on besides just the sour flavor – hints of sweet, salty, spicy (though […]
