Ingredients

How to make it

  • Start with a large stock pot filled a third of the way with water and add shanks, beef shoulder and salt. (Do not cover the pot!!!)
  • When it starts boil - skim the top of the pot of any foam or impurities every 5 mins, until there is no more foam(about 20 mins).
  • Next add onions, celery, and tomato garlic. Allow soup to cook for about 45 mins( skim any impurities or foam you see).
  • Add potatoes, carrots and corn cover and cook for about 30 more minutes. Add more water if necessary.
  • Remove shanks, add squash, cabbage and pepper, cumin. Allow to cook for 15 to 20 mins. Remove from heat, add cilantro.
  • Serving suggestions.
  • At my mom's home, she removes most of the meat from the pot and places it in the middle of the table. This allows the carnivorous easy access.
