Tips: Preparing Fideo Sopa con Puerco (Fideo Pasta with Pork Soup)
- Select suitable fideo pasta: Look for thin, toasted pasta known as fideo or angel hair pasta. Traditionally, fideo pasta is used in this dish.
- Use quality pork: Choose lean pork shoulder or loin cut for a flavorful soup. You can also substitute chicken or beef for a different taste.
- Sauté aromatics and spices: Sautéing onions, garlic, and spices like cumin, oregano, and bay leaves enhances the soup's flavor and creates a savory base.
- Simmer ingredients: Allow the soup to simmer gently for at least 30 minutes or up to an hour to develop rich flavors. This allows the pork to become tender and the flavors to meld together.
- Add vegetables: Incorporate vegetables like diced tomatoes, bell peppers, and zucchini for added texture and nutrition. Adjust the quantity and choice of vegetables based on your preference.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Before serving, garnish the soup with fresh cilantro, parsley, or green onions for an aromatic touch and vibrant color.
