Sopa de Fideos (Chicken Noodle Soup with Sofrito)
![Sopa de Fideos (Chicken Noodle Soup with Sofrito)](https://www.eatingwell.com/thmb/GgA2Q1MORsO5A-ijSaioq5pSceI=/1500x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/sopa-de-fideos-2000-08db5b69a6094f35ae075befb5ac35f0.jpg)
Sofrito is a flavor base made by sautéing onions and garlic in oil. In Latin America, each region has its own variation that incorporates native ingredients; the tomato-based sofrito here is common in Mexico. The key to the color and flavor of this soup is to fry the sofrito in the oil: it's imperative that it sizzles as soon as it hits the pot. (Stand back and use a long spoon!)
