Redbait Fish Soup (Ukha)

Make a fragrant fish soup from an exotic catch — simple and quick! In our family, ukha (Russian fish soup) is a favorite. Recently we tried making it with an overseas fish — redbait. We loved the result: the broth came out rich, moderately fatty, with a pleasant aroma and a delicate flavor.

  • Naturally, fish soup is best made with fresh fish, but frozen works fine too — just be sure to let it thaw on its own. 1. Scale the redbait, gut it, and remove the gills. Cut the cleaned fish into serving-size pieces. 2. Set a pot of water over the heat, and while it comes to a boil, prep the vegetables. 3. Wash and peel the potatoes and carrots, and peel the onion. 4. Cut the potatoes into small sticks and the carrots into triangles or rounds. 5. Add the chopped vegetables, the whole onion, salt, and spices to the boiling water. Bring back to a boil and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. 6. After that, remove the onion from the pot and add the fish. Cook for another 10–15 minutes from the moment it returns to a boil. 7. Serve the finished redbait soup in bowls with the pieces of fish, sprinkled with finely chopped fresh herbs. Enjoy!
