This soup is traditionally made with shark in Portugal, but you can substitute it with any other fish that is similar to shark. My mother does this recipe often. If you think it's in need of more vinegar add more bit by bit until you reach your desirable taste, likewise with the other ingredients, but this is how I prefer mine. Rae -
