Personal Notes:
This recipe is widely popular in Mexico. This soup is enjoyed at lunch, supper and even breakfast. When eaten with plenty extra hot pepper, it is reputed to cure hangovers. The De La Rosaa's traditionally have this for breakfast New Years day, with Tamales Re-fried Beans, and Huevo's Rancheros'.
