• We can prepare seafood soup with almost any fish or seafood that we want, but it is true that some are more suitable than others.
• In today’s recipe we have used mussels, clams, prawns and hake. We should try to get the most out of each of them. Taking great care of their cooking, we should not overcook fish or shellfish, as they would lose all their texture and flavor.
• To complete the recipe, we add rice. This will give the soup a creaminess that will make part of the liquid fat. It is almost a dish that we could consume as unique due to the variety of nutrients that we will have on the plate.
