  I made this and ate it fresh and it was absolutely lovely. I didn't pass the first batch through a sieve which gave it a slightly more rustic feel and this was quite filling. I passed the second batch through a sieve which gave it a velvety texture and I found it less filing. I would recommend doing this if making it as a starter for a dinner party, for which this is perfect. This soup was also good from frozen. Incidentally after sieving the soup, I added some butter to the 'solids' and when it cooled down it made a tasty dip/paté.

  Delicious. I was unsure about blending fish into a soup, but it was a great texture and flavour. I made this for two and served it straight away without freezing it with the red onion, gruyere and rosemary fougasse recommended here. (Measurements used for two as main course: 1 onion, 400 g can of beans, 375 ml chicken stock, 150 ml cream, 350 g smoked cod).
