The story behind
I first had Lohikeitto at a harbor market in Helsinki. The wind was biting, but this soup felt like a warm blanket. What I love most is how the fresh dill cuts through the rich cream—it's a flavor profile that just works perfectly. Making it at home always reminds me that simple, high-quality ingredients are all you really need for a masterpiece.
