Step-by-Step Instructions
- Remove the skin from the salmon filet and cut it into bite-sized chunks. Set aside the skin for broth.
- In a large soup pot, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add sliced leeks and sauté for 10 minutes until softened.
- In a separate saucepan, combine the reserved salmon skin with 5 cups of water and simmer for 10 minutes. Strain into the pot with leeks.
- Add diced russet potatoes and sliced carrots to the pot, stir in half of the fresh dill, bring to a boil, and then let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Gently stir in the salmon chunks, 1 cup of heavy cream, and a pinch of allspice. Simmer on low heat for 3-5 minutes until salmon is cooked.
- Add the remaining fresh dill and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed before serving.

Notes
For best flavor, use skin-on salmon and consider using fish stock instead of water. Adjust cream for desired richness.
