Instructions for Sopa De Nopales (Cactus Soup)
Cactus looks forbidding. Stripped of its prickly points, however, it is a mild-mannered vegetable with a slightly tart flavor. Look for easy-to-use canned cactus (sold as NOPALES or NOPALITOS) in supermarkets and Mexican groceries. ======================================================= ================== * - husks removed, rinsed and coarsely chopped ** - packed in water, drained and rinsed. ======================================================= ================== In a 4-5 quart pan over medium heat, stir oil and onion often until onion is golden, about 15 minutes. Add tomatillos; stir often just until soft, about 6 minutes. Add broth; bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in cactus, lime juice, and cilantro. Cook until hot. Ladle soup into a tureen. Offer cheese to add to taste. Accompany with lime wedges.
