Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tablespoons (21 g) butter
- 1/4 cup (40 g) finely minced onion
- 1/4 cup (30 g) finely minced celery
- 2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream
- 1 can (14 ounces, or 400 g) salmon, drained
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Method
- In a heavy saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat and add the onion and celery
- Saute the vegetables for a few minutes until the onion starts turning translucent
- Meanwhile, pour the cream into a glass 2-cup (480 ml) measure or any other microwavable container big enough for it and from which you can pour
- Place it in the microwave and heat it at 50 percent power for 3 to 4 minutes
- This just cuts the time needed to heat the cream through- you can skip this step and simply heat the soup on the stovetop a little longer, if you like
- Pour the cream into the saucepan and add the salmon and thyme
- Break up the salmon as you stir the soup-I found my whisk to be ideal for breaking the salmon into fine pieces
- Heat until simmering and serve
