Beef Shank Soup, also known as "sopa de pata de res" in Latin America, has a rich history dating back to traditional peasant cuisine. This hearty soup originated as a way to make the most of tough, inexpensive cuts of meat like beef shank. Slow-cooked with aromatic vegetables and spices, the shank releases its collagen, resulting in a flavorful and gelatinous broth. In Mexico, renowned chefs like Enrique Olvera have elevated this humble dish, infusing it with modern flair. In the United States, it's a staple in soul food and Southern cuisine. For the best version, seek out a restaurant with a long-standing tradition of preparing this dish, or try making it at home with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
