For cooking fish soup from trout, the head and tail are more often used. The ear turns out to be very fat, rich.

If the family is small, then not all of the resulting broth can be used, because it turns out to be very concentrated and fatty. In the ear, if desired, you can add cereals (for example, millet or rice). When serving, be sure to offer a slice of lemon - it will slightly extinguish the fat content of the soup, and the greens.

Root vegetables are best washed with a brush or a hard sponge under running water.

For this recipe, it is better to take not frozen, but fresh fish.

So that the mucous membrane of the eyes is not irritated when slicing onions, rinse the onion and knife with cold water. The cutting board will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell if you rub it with a piece of lemon before slicing.
