Note
If using tougher cuts of meat, increase simmering time by 15-20 minutes to ensure tenderness.
For a richer flavor, substitute water with beef stock or add a bay leaf during simmering.
This soup tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld together. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
