There are a few solid Caldo de Peixe recipes online, but most call only for salt and pepper or are very vague regarding the spice profile used in the Islands of Cabo Verde.

I hope that you enjoy this taste of my childhood.
My mother got this recipe from one of her “Women’s magazines”. It has been a favorite ever since. It can also be served over couscous.
