01 / ABOUT THE DISH

About the dish

Kalapurka is a traditional soup originating from Potosí. The soup is made with a combination of beef, pork, or beef jerky (charque), potatoes, onions, garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, ground hot peppers, and corn flour. When served, a hot volcanic rock is dropped into the earthenware bowl with the soup, and it then begins to bubble. This soup is a staple breakfast in Potosí, especially on cold mornings.
