Caldillo de Congrio comes from Chile and roughly translates as “broth of conger” or “conger chowder.” It is a hearty fish soup, sometimes like this recipe, with cream stirred in.
The largest species of eel found in European waters, growing up to three meters in length the Conger is relatively common around British shores living amongst rocks and hiding inside shipwrecks. Rarely taken home for eating, congers usually go back when caught by fishermen.
Caldeirada de Enguias is a Portuguese and Galician fish stew consisting of a wide variety of fish and potatoes. Described as “a fish muddle that varies from town to town and depends on what the fishermen have managed to catch.”
