Fosforera

Venezuelan Fosforera soup is a traditional meal from the country's eastern coast. Because of the large range of marine elements included in this dish, it is said to have aphrodisiac properties. The Venezuelan shellfish matchstick has a high nutritional value, which is why it is supposed to "raise even a dead person" in Venezuela. Its preparation is time-consuming yet straightforward, and the payoff is well worth it.

This soup's name, fosforera, is said to be derived from phosphorus, as it is unusually high in this nutrient. Fish head, shrimps, clams, squids, and crabs are among the items used in a fosforera soup. Aside from seafood, it also incorporates diverse veggies such as onions, tomatoes, sweet chili, and coriander.
