Changua is a soup of Colombian cuisine, originally and typical of the Cundiboyasense region. It quickly prepared using very few ingredients. It is traditionally consumed for breakfast and accompanied by bread.
I've been eating this soup all my life, but I didn't know its name, until recently, that in Colombian cooking class I had the opportunity to learn and know a little about the foods of my country, and what a surprise, there I was the famous changua, a broth that I love.
It is an egg and milk soup, it tastes delicious, and best of all, its ingredients are very economical, and we almost always have them at home.
It has several forms of preparation. Some prefer to add cilantro and onion at the end, others add it from the beginning, some add potato. There is something for everyone, and the truth is delicious. In my house, my mom prepares us for this soup. Usually, on weekends where I am at home, I love to accompany it with hot chocolate, arepa, and sometimes even with rice, a real delight.
If, on the contrary, you have never tried the Changua, it is time for you to be encouraged to prepare it and try it, you will delight yourself with those who try it with you.
Changua is a dish with a lot of flavors. It consumed in almost all places in Colombia. However, the city with the highest consumption of this soup is Bogotá, since it is ideal for those cold days and withstand the lowest temperatures. Its preparation is one of the simplest, so I hope you are encouraged and prepared with us. Let's cook.
