• Freshness is key: Use fresh fish for the best flavor and texture. Opt for firm-fleshed varieties like salmon, cod, or tilapia.
• Spices and heat level: Adjust the spice level to your preference by adding spices like chili flakes, cayenne pepper, or fresh chilies. Start with a small amount and gradually increase it to avoid overpowering the soup.
• Aromatics: Enhance the soup’s flavor with aromatic ingredients like garlic, ginger, and lemongrass. These ingredients add depth and complexity to the broth.
