Finnish Burbot Soup Recipe

Pasi Pärssinen•

You may not believe it from the looks of this slimy fish, but Burbot tastes excellent. From mid-January to the end of February, Finlanders go ice-fishing for it. Once you've caught the fish this traditional rich winter soup is easy to whip up. If you aren't up for ice-fishing or don't live in a cold climate you can substitute cod and this recipe will still be fantastic.
