Lohikeitto

28 January 2021 No Comments

The first time I heard about Lohikeitto I was at home watching the Food network. It was a special episode about the traditional food and cuisine of Finland. As soon as I heard about Lohikeitto, this amazing salmon soup I decided I wanted to make my own recipe with a homemade lobster fumet. Jean-Félix was not super excited about the idea so I waited until I had a guest over to try it. It was amazing … and believe me or not, it became one of Jean-Félix’s favourites. He always asks for Lohikeitto now. HA-HA-HA It’s so comforting. This soup makes you feel warm and happy. In Finland they will serve the Lohikeitto with rye bread but I much more prefer with a big loaf of bread.

Lobster Pasta

Lobster is clearly one of my favourite things in the world! I could eat some every day. Pasta, risotto, club sandwiches, garlic butter, bisque… Every way to eat lobster is a good way for me! This delicious seafood is a real treasure. You can use everything and honestly, you should. Never throw the shells of that gem away! It’s a crime. HA-HA-HA Its shell is like gold! So precious. The flavour you can extract from it is amazing! Almost unbelievable! For stock, cream, broth, oil and so much more!!! I have always wanted to honour every single part of my lobster!

Hi guys! I hope you’re all safe at home! Talking of safe, I think it is safe to say that being in containment had sparked in many of us, an imagination we forgot we had. Thinking of new ways to stay busy, new games, recipes… I always thought that being limited is a good way to be innovative and I try to apply that concept in my cocktails once in a while. Today, I’m giving you some tips to be able to create delicious sour cocktails at home, using what you have handy. I hope you will like it! Don’t forget to tag us on Instagram if you give it a try. We would love to see what you will come up with. Stay safe my friends. Cheers!
