Title says it all!

I want to try making salmon soup - fresh and smoked - and I have no recipe ideas.

Care to share?
Everything will be all right in the end, so if it's not all right, then it's not yet the end.

The first recipe is one I love to cook, it is a Cod recipe but I see no reason it wouldn’t work with Salmon, It is very light in nature and should lend itself to using both smoked and unsmoked Salmon:

The following are chowders none of which I have cooked although the sources are usually good.

Buon appetito.

Thank you.

One way I really like salmon poached in a flavorful broth, and you can basically serve some or all of the broth as soup. I'd stay away from the wine-based poaching as that tends to be too much acid for soup, but anything savory with enough salt and no cheese will suffice. I don't have a recipe as I usually cook more by feel and taste than by the book. Poaching in miso soup is very good.
Relax. You'll live longer.

I rarely follow a recipe or write my own down because I focus more on specific flavors & ingredient combinations and work from there. Sometimes I may want a more chowder like consistency & others I may be looking for a light broth. I personally will lightly poach the salmon in a broth, remove it & add it back at the end as to preserve the natural flavor & not overcook it. With that said, envision the flavor profiles of your desired final product & move forward from there.
Here's a list of ingredients that I would include in a Salmon Chowder recipe:
Salmon, Leeks, Onion, Celery, Carrots, Shallots, Garlic, Lemon/Preserved lemon, Herbs(thyme, tarragon, etc.), Potato, Celery Root, chicken/Vegetable broth; finish with Cream/Powdered Milk
Good luck!

I'm good with most soups and some chowders and I don't have a recipe for any of them, either.  I've never tried making a fish soup or stew and I had no idea how to treat the salmon when cooking it, but I'm getting the idea.  This is all good and I appreciate it.

Thank you both.
