Pira caldo

n/a
Pira caldo is a Paraguayan soup prepared with a combination of vegetables, milk, soft white cheese, and a freshwater fish called surubi. The vegetables (bell peppers, leeks, celery, onions, carrots) are first cooked with the dish, and then milk and cheese are added in order to thicken the soup.
