Beard recipe contests, held in 1975. The winner's name was Reino Koski.
This is a Finnish soup.
Use any cut salmon or steelhead, leaving skin on. In 1 quart water, with
salt and pepper, simmer on low heat in 5- or 6-quart pot. When skin comes
off easily, set aside on plate and remove skin and bones. Cut or break into
1- and 2-inch pieces. In liquid stock, place bay leaves and whole
allspice. Add potatoes, cut in 1- or 1 1/2-inch pieces; carrots, cut
lengthwise and into half circles about 1/4-inch thick; and 2 onions cubed
coarsely (not chopped fine). Cook over low heat. After a short while, add
red cabbage and celery leaves. Stir. Cook until carrots are almost tender
and potatoes don't disintegrate.
While this is cooking, dice bacon and cook in fry pan over low heat. Pour
almost all fat off. Add butter (or margarine) and diced celery, remaining
onion (diced fine) and green pepper. Saute' until onions are yellow and
peppers are pale green. Now back to your pot. Add salmon pieces, (they
should be not quite cooked). From now on everything is simmered on low to
preserve body. Add clams with broth, shrimp and 1 quart water. Put in
stuff from fry pan. Add pimento, mushrooms, rosemary, cumin, thyme,
oregano and chilies. Stir in milk a cup at a time. Add butter and let whole
bit simmer for at least one hour. Serve with tossed salad and garlic
bread. Can be frozen.
