About Caldo de Res
Doña Juana’s caldo de res is a Guatemalan beef soup shared from her kitchen in Panajachel. Beef cooks with tomato, onion and seasoning before corn, carrot, güisquil and potatoes join the pot.
Some cooked tomato is blended with broth and returned to the soup. Oregano, pepper and garlic belong to the ingredient list, while beef short rib is offered for additional flavour.
The soup is ladled into bowls and finished with chopped cilantro. Rice accompanies it, with avocado and lime offered on the side for diners who want them.
