Caldo is a traditional soup, often rooted in Mexican or Latin American cuisine, celebrated for its comforting and hearty qualities. Typically made with a flavorful broth seasoned with herbs and spices, it includes a mix of vegetables like carrots, zucchini, and potatoes, as well as protein sources such as chicken, beef, or seafood. Packed with nutrients from the fresh ingredients, caldo is a nutritious option that provides vitamins, minerals, and lean protein, supporting overall health and energy. Its high vegetable content contributes fiber, aiding digestion. However, the soup can be higher in sodium depending on the base or seasonings used, so opting for fresh ingredients and low-sodium broth can make it an even healthier choice. Served hot and often accompanied by lime or tortillas, caldo is a versatile dish that brings both nourishment and cultural richness to the table.
