Sopa De Nopales (Cactus Soup) Preparation
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.
