Today I am going to introduce you to vori vori or bori bori, this is a soup from Paraguay, which contains small balls made mainly out of cornmeal as its main feature. The name of the soup “vori vori” means “a lot of balls” in the language Guarani. Guarani does something a few languages do, in order to say a word in plural, it is simply repeated. Vori vori has been declared the best soup of the world in 2026 by the Taste Atlas. The soup comes together rather quickly, you will brown chicken first, chop or blitz some veggies you will simmer and then you can boil the soup. It is only for the last ten minutes that you will need to add the cornflour balls to the mix, they get ready quickly. I love this warming soup in winter and can highly recommend making it.
