Caldo de Pescado. In my hometown Chihuahua, this fish soup is lovingly referred to as “caldo de oso”. No, it’s not named after bears. The story goes that workers at the reservoirs ate this soup so frequently that they jokingly called it “el caldo odioso” (the annoying soup) because they were so tired of it. Over time, the name evolved into “caldo de oso”. Funny, right?
Here’s what you’ll need to make this Mexican fish soup:
4 tomatoes
1 garlic clove
½ cup diced onion
2 bay leaves
3 liters of water
2 lbs or 1kg of catfish (bagre) medallions
2 carrots, sliced
2 zucchinis, sliced
1/4 handful of fresh cilantro
1 chipotle chili
½ teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon salt
12 cups water
Lime wedges for serving
