Psarosoupa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Psarosoupa (Greek: ψαρόσουπα) is the Greek word for a fish soup, traditional to Greek cuisine. There are several variations on the soup. All include fish and vegetables.

The types of fish used vary: carp, cod, hake, mackerel, salmon, skate, trout, turbot, perch, haddock, and swordfish are all possibilities.[1] Some prefer a firm, white-fleshed fish, such as grouper, snapper, or rockfish, and avoid more oily fish.[2]
