Hoy, en el Estado de Oaxaca (México) el Sopa de Gato, una sopa hecha a
base de espinazo de ternera o res o cabra, garbanzos y verduras es muy popular... I was initially annoyed by the thought of Sopa de Gato, but I figured it out. 1 kilo of backbones of beef, veal or goat 250 grams of chick peas soaked from the previous night 250 grams of peeled and cut carrots in cubes 500 grams of chayotes cut in cubes 250 grams of green beans clean and cut in pieces 1 kilo of peeled tomato, without seed and cut in cubes 1 small sprig of coriander 6 pasilla chiles salt to taste. Cook backbones in sufficient water, and little by little and according to the necessary time of cooking for each vegetable, add the carrot, chayote, green beans and the Pope and chick peas. Finally the tomato is added, the coriander and let boil about 10 minutes, salt to taste. Deseed and devein the pasilla chiles, blister them in a frying pan, then chop and puree them in a blender and add to the pot. Serve with chopped cilantro, and chopped onion, as well as lemons divided in wedges. What a cruel practical joke on cat lovers! "Sopa de Gato" turns out to be Birria, a Mexican dish I already knew about... |

The original Spanish was something like "espinazo de cabeza de res".So I guess it's more like neckbones. I was finding recipes for "caldo de perros", "cabeza de gato" and "caldo de lenguas de gatos" and they all turned out to be attempts at humor in naming what is essentially Mexican "soul food", that which is eaten by the poor. |
