KITCHEN PRACTICE 1 — A Full Halászlé
==================================================
Chapter: Hungarian Cookery 9 — Fisherman's Soup & Cold Fruit Soup

TASK
----
Build a full halászlé — a paprika-forward fish stock, with fish added
and gently poached only near the end for a short, real window rather
than a long braise.

WHAT TO DO
----------
1. Build an onion base as in Chapter 2, cooked soft and pale.
2. Take the pot off the heat, stir in a generous amount of paprika,
   and add liquid within seconds, as in Chapter 3 — use more paprika
   than you would for a pörkölt, since this soup wants to taste
   intensely of it.
3. Add water or fish stock (and fish bones or a fish head, if you
   have them) and simmer the base for a while to build real depth.
4. Once the stock is fully built and simmering, add pieces of fish
   and poach them gently for only a few minutes, until just cooked
   through.
5. Remove from the heat as soon as the fish is done, and serve.

WHAT TO EXPECT
--------------
- The finished soup should look a deep, saturated red — noticeably
  more intense than a pörkölt.
- The fish should be tender and moist, holding its shape rather than
  falling apart into flakes or shreds.
- The overall flavour should taste distinctly of paprika first, with
  the fish's own flavour coming through underneath it.

WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER
----------------------------
This exercise runs halászlé's own full technique end to end for the
first time, and is the direct, hands-on demonstration of why this
course's own fish chapter needs a genuinely different cooking
rhythm from the long-braised meat dishes in Chapters 4 through 6.
