Waste not, want not

Poached salmon fillets for tea (= evening meal) today. Afterwards, couldn't throw away the water in which fish was cooked. (I'm just so stingy, that's all.) Then, decided to make a fish soup with the water. Found very similar fish soup recipes in cookbooks (one Hungarian, the other Croatian). So, I just fiddled the recipes a little bit according to the contents of the fridge, and made the soup while washing the dishes.

Pleased with myself for not wasting food today. Earlier, I even made apple pancakes by using apples which were not very good for eating any more. Probably my hubby was right for calling me a Scotch-Jew...
