Beef soup is a highly valued traditional dish in many Latin American cultures, known for its comforting flavor and nutritional value. In different countries, this recipe can vary in ingredients and names; for example, in Mexico it is usually called "caldo de res," while in countries like Argentina and Chile it is known as "beef stew with vegetables." Its origin dates back to ancient indigenous culinary practices combined with Spanish techniques introduced during the colonial period, resulting in a unique fusion that highlights the richness of the meat and vegetables in a single dish. This type of soup is not only ideal for cold days, but it is also a complete and hearty meal that has transcended generations.

How to Prepare Hearty Beef Soup with Vegetables and Noodles
To prepare this delicious soup, start by putting 8 cups of water in a pot, along with a 14 oz can of Italian tomato sauce, 2 medium chopped onions, and 1 pound of frozen mixed vegetables.
Add the seasoning, which includes oregano, Mexican chili powder, pepper, red cayenne pepper, and salt, along with extra virgin olive oil. Heat over high heat for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to integrate properly.
In a separate skillet, brown the beef until it is well seared. Then, transfer the meat to the pot with the soup mixture using a slotted spoon to leave the fat in the skillet.
Reduce the heat to medium and let the soup cook for an additional 10 minutes.
Add the egg noodles, reduce the heat to low, and continue heating for another 20 minutes so the noodles soften and absorb the flavor of the broth.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary, ensuring a perfect balance of flavors.
Serve the soup hot and accompany it with grated parmesan cheese to taste, which will add a creamy and delicious touch to this hearty dish.
