Notes: A friend of mine in Obregon, Mexico served this soup for lunch. I was immediately taken with it and went in the kitchen and talked to the "head maid". She is in charge of the entire household, a very powerful lady in the Mexican family. Somehow, with only pigeon Spanish, I managed to come out with this recipe. It's wonderful!
