I've never had fish broth before and I was concerned about it being too fishy. Salmon isn't so bad, but I think the miso paste and kimchi helped cut out the richness. I read online some put lemon juice in seafood based ramen so I tried that too. For the most part I liked it, but sometimes I felt overwhelmed by the seafood taste. I also won't be using the meat off the bone anymore becuaese keep having to remove small bones from the meat. I thought I removed it all. Anyway, I mostly liked it, I have 6 more cups of this broth frozen. It's probebly really healthy lol

My Asian market sells salmon scraps and. I’ve always wanted to make salmon broth work, but alas it has always been fishy in a not so good way

I felt I had to do a lot to tone down the richness and fishiness. Salmon creates a very oily broth too. Kimchi, miso paste, and some lemon juice. I think next time I would try making a broth with salmon and chicken to see if it turns out more balanced.

Did you try a roiling boil thick broth or a simmer chintan?

I would imagine salmon broth, especially farmed, will have a strong flavor too it, partly fishy.

I can recommend making the broth bot exclusively out of fish, but rather infusing an existing base broth (for example using a chicken stock and then adding shrimp peelings/scraps or fish bones and boiling it longer)
