step by step

Method

  1. Cook the bacon and sear the sausage

    Step 1

  2. Sear the salmon

    • Sear 1.5 pounds of skin-on salmon in the pot.
    • It doesn't have to be cooked through, as it will finish cooking in the soup.

  3. Build the holy trinity and roux

    • Add the diced onion, celery and bell pepper (holy trinity) along with the minced garlic.
    • Add the flour and stir to make a roux. Don't let it intimidate you.

    • Give everything a really nice stir.
    • Slowly add the chicken broth.
    • Stir in the roasted garlic base.
    Step 4

  5. Simmer with potatoes and thyme

    • Add the seasonings, potatoes and thyme sprigs.
    • Let it simmer until the potatoes are tender.
    Step 5

  6. Smash and add the cream

    • Give the potatoes a nice little smash.
    • Stir in the heavy cream. Stir, stir, stir.
    Step 6

  7. Finish with sausage, salmon and cheese

    • Add the andouille sausages and the salmon back to the pot.
    • Add the cheddar cheese and Italian herbs.
    • Add the bacon directly to your bowl, or to the pot if you prefer.
