Another day, I came across a sh soup so dierent I could have been in another
country. Tomato-based and broth-like, it came with Finnish pike-perch, green olives,
mushrooms, and (something of a revelation to this cook) sliced gherkins the sassiest
addition I have ever had to a sh soup. Any associations with the Med were slashed
with the inclusion of the ever-present chopped dill (it is their parsley) and a
last-minute curl of soured cream. The eect was clean-tasting and piquant. In
trendier places sh soup isn't overlooked either, it will just come in a (very) much
smaller portion and with adegree or two more elegance. Either way, it's a bowl worth
the trip.
