Fish Soup with Cumin
So this soup was a happy accident! It was really quick to make, and the kids ate it up! I didn’t take pictures last night, but I made myself a similar soup this morning and that’s what you’re seeing here.
Fish Soup
Ingredients
- Perpetual chicken stock (I would have used fish stock, but we had chicken going)
- whitefish
- onion
- carrots
- cumin powder
- salt
Directions
- Dice the onion and put it in the pot with a bit of stock, cumin, and salt over medium heat.
- Chop your carrots and add them and the rest of your stock to the pot when the onion starts to turn translucent.
- When the carrots start to get tender, put your fish in the soup. It’s fine if it is frozen when it goes in the soup, just expect to give it a little more time.
- Cover and simmer until the fish is flaky and opaque.
- Salt and season further to taste.
Variations
- Use other vegetables. I used broccoli today.
- Stir in coconut milk and lime juice when it is cooked.

Wonderful, simple, healthy, healing soup! Thanks for sharing this with Sunday Night Soup Night, look forward to seeing you again soon!
I don’t know if this helps or not but I was thinking that the main broth benefit is the gelatin because it helps with smooth muscle mass and the gut is a huge smooth muscle. My doc recommends “collagen hydrolysate” which is basically gelatin but in a form that can be put in hot or cold beverages without gelling. So I put it in the kids morning smoothie. I buy it from great lakes. Good luck!

My kids might go for this. They love fish, so I have that going for me
