Caldo de costilla is a beef soup from Colombia, namely its Andean region. The soup is a breakfast dish, made by boiling beef ribs with potato slices, onion, garlic, and cilantro leaves. Popularly nicknamed levantamuertos (lit. death’s awaker), due to the fact it’s an effective aid when dealing with a hangover, caldo de costilla is a perfect comfort food dish that is commonly eaten with a side of either arepas, bread, or rice.
