This is delicious! I wanted to recreate this soup which I tasted on a layover in Helsinki airport, and this is as good as the restaurant version. I made it for my family the first time this month and they’ve already requested it as a weekly regular. I followed the directions exactly (with 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 tablespoon pepper), and the potatoes and salmon were cooked to perfection. It was easy and quick. Only comment is that it’s not a very thick soup, but I don’t think it’s supposed to be…and perhaps could add a bit of flour? But the taste is wonderful.
