Brazilian Shrimp Soup "Sopa de Camarão"
“ There’s just something about the flavors you can develop in all the different varieties that are out there. Sometimes I feel that tomato soup, a western classic, is missing a little something. And recently I’ve learned that that something is shrimp! With bright tomato and lemon, plump and juicy shrimp, and creamy coconut milk, this soup will warm you from the inside out. So let’s get this soup sizzling!”
Bon appetit!!
