Changua
Colombian breakfast soup of milk, water, poached eggs, scallions and coriander.
About Changua
Changua is a breakfast soup from Colombia's central Andean highlands, closely associated with Bogotá. This profile follows the restrained milk-and-water broth with poached eggs, spring onion and fresh coriander.
Milk gives the broth gentle sweetness and body while spring onion and coriander provide fresh savoury lift. The egg yolks enrich each bowl as they break, with salt and black pepper keeping the flavour clean and direct.
The soup is pale and lightly creamy, dotted with green herbs and holding intact poached eggs. Its broth remains fluid rather than thick, while optional toasted bread softens at the edges when dipped into the hot liquid.
