Around the World in 30 Soups: This month we're collaborating with chefs, cookbook authors, and our own Kitchn crew to share a globetrotting adventure in soups from countries and cuisines around the world. Today's stop: Sweden.
This curried fish soup is based on a recipe by my mormor (or maternal grandmother) and it's a family favorite. Swedes have a surprising affinity for spice. We use lots of saffron, cinnamon, and cardamom in our baking — perhaps we sourced them on far-flung Viking raids? — and even curry powder crops up now and then as a subtle seasoning. Here, it adds an earthy depth and warmth without going overboard, and it's the perfect soothing soup for a Swedish winter's day.
