Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 sprigs fresh rosemary
20 sprigs fresh thyme
2 whole dried bay leaves
12 whole black peppercorns
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large leeks, white and pale green parts only, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 cups total)
1 large fennel bulb, cut into medium dice (about 2 cups total)
2 quarts heavy cream
1 pound smoked haddock, flaked (about 2 cups total)*
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
*If smoked haddock is unavailable, substitute smoked cod or mackerel. Alternatively, use fresh haddock, cod, or halibut, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups total).
Special Equipment
10- by 10-inch square of cheesecloth, kitchen string

Steps:

  • Wrap the rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, and peppercorns in the cheesecloth and secure with the kitchen string. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan over moderate heat, melt the butter. Add the leeks and fennel and sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, add the herb package, and simmer until the soup is reduced by about one third, 20 to 25 minutes. Add haddock, cover, and simmer an additional 5 minutes. Season to taste. Divide soup among 8 bowls, making sure to evenly distribute the fish and vegetables. Sprinkle each dish with dill and serve immediately.

This is the best smoked haddock soup I've ever had! The smokiness of the fish pairs perfectly with the creamy broth.

This soup was a disappointment. The broth was watery and the haddock was overcooked.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but I actually really enjoyed this soup. The smokiness of the haddock was subtle and the broth was very flavorful.

Not a fan. The soup was bland and the haddock was tough.

This is my new go-to soup recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out perfectly. I love the smoky flavor of the haddock and the creamy texture of the soup.

The soup was good, but I found it to be a bit too salty. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

Easy to follow recipe that resulted in a delicious and flavorful soup. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was a hit with my family.

This soup was a delightful experience! The smokiness of the haddock paired perfectly with the creamy broth. I added a touch of cayenne pepper for a little extra kick, and it was divine. Will definitely be making this again!
