Very good soup but, I added salt and a tablespoon of sugar to cut the acidity of the tomato products. Also added more garlic and black pepper. Now it is fantastic, and I defiantly will double the batch next time. I used farm raised salmon. Could be why it was lacking in sodium?

Love this soup. Looking at the recipe I punched it up a bit with more onion, garlic, basil, oregano and put in some salt. It was so good and easy. Also used fire roasted tomatoes which I think taste better than the others. So good.

I added clams, crabs, shrimps, and scallops. It was delicious.

This was yummy. I wanted to make it for a main course so added a couple of potatoes and skipped the shrimp. Also added just a few red pepper flakes to give some kick. Hubby loved it!

I tried this soup today it was good but I thought it needed some taste. I had never used salmon in soup now I know why.

I made this one night for friends as a first course. Everyone loved it so much, now I make is as the main course. I get requests for this all the time now. This is the best recipe I've ever made

I made this as a first course to a dinner party. Instead of the salmon, I used Talapia. IT WAS FANTASTIC. Everyone that attended is still raving about how great it was. Next time, I will double the recipe and it will be the MAIN course. I highly recommend.
