Mexican Soups Are A Favorite Year Round
BY JOHN GRIFFIN
from The News (Mexico City), originally published by the San Antonio Express-News
Mexicans love their soups, regardless of the season.
Soups vary by region, but the message of contentment is the same.
“Soup is still a separate course at lunch,” says Zarela Martinez, cookbook author and New York restaurateur. “(Mexicans) always like a soup of some kind to serve at the start of their big meal, which is usually at lunch.”
Bowls of steaming sopa, or soup, made with chicken, beef or seafood, offer culinary comfort in all regions of the country, although “a particular name will sometimes have an association with a particular region,” Martinez says.
