Caldo De Pescado (Mexican Shark Soup)
Shark Recipe
I love good a shark recipe. Especially since, shark is always tender and flavorful. That's why it's often substituted for swordfish. And here's another thing, I love shark fishing. Especially thresher shark fishing from my kayak. Although it can be dangerous because of the thresher shark's tail, it is by far the most exciting fishing a fisherman could ever want.
My new recipe, Caldo De Pescado will fill your kitchen with aromas of a hearty Mexican fish soup. Interestingly, this recipe uses chocolate mole, that adds old world Mexican flavors to the broth. In the end, it's quick and easy to make, and I'm sure, this soup will become a go-to recipe in any fisherman's casaita.
How about a Hawaiian shark poke? Super good and insanely tender. Check out it!
