Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • 700 g arracacha root, peeled and cut into chunks (5 cups)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 300 g sabanera potatoes, peeled and diced (2 medium potatoes)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 500 g bone-in chicken pieces (thighs or drumsticks)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 120 g chopped green onions (5 stalks)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 10 g minced garlic (2 cloves)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 20 g chopped fresh cilantro (\u2153 cup)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 liters water (8 cups)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 15 g salt (1 tablespoon)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 3 g black pepper (\u00bd teaspoon)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 20 g butter (1\u00bd tablespoons)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Prepare the broth,<\/strong> place the chicken, water, half of the green onions, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large pot. Cook for about 40 minutes until the chicken is tender and the broth is flavorful.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Add the root vegetables,<\/strong> stir in the arracacha and potatoes. Cook for about 30 minutes until completely tender.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Shred the chicken,<\/strong> remove the chicken pieces, shred the meat, and discard the bones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Create the texture,<\/strong> gently mash part of the arracacha and potatoes in the pot to create a creamy consistency while keeping some texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Finish the soup,<\/strong> return the shredded chicken to the pot and add the remaining green onions, butter, and cilantro. Cook for another 5 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Serve hot,<\/strong> making sure each bowl contains plenty of arracacha, potatoes, and chicken.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Chef’s Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Use fresh, firm arracacha roots for the best flavor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Avoid fully blending the soup; a rustic texture is traditional.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Bone-in chicken creates a richer broth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Mash additional arracacha if you prefer a thicker consistency.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Traditional Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Some families prepare the soup using only arracacha without potatoes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Beef may be used instead of chicken in certain regions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Fresh corn on the cob is sometimes added.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Traditional Serving Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          Serve hot with fresh avocado, white arepas, or rustic country bread. Traditional beverages include panela drink, hot chocolate, and fresh fruit juices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
