The sopa paraguaya is an essential element in any "Asado" (a social occasion where diverse cuts of grilled beef, pork and sausages are eaten, the Paraguayan version of the American barbecue), during the days of Semana Santa (Holy Week) especially at the Viernes Santo (Good Friday), and also at weddings.
