CALDO VERDE (PORTUGUESE GREEN SOUP)
This soup is a Portuguese favorite of mine. It is a creamy soup with the wonderful use of kale, giving it the green soup look. Enjoy it with a thick slice from your favorite loaf of bread!

Steps:
- Bring the chicken stock to the boil in a large, heavy saucepan. Add the potatoes, chourico and garlic. Simmer gently for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are soft.
- Remove the chourico and when it's cool enough, slice diagonally into very thin slices.
- With a potato masher, mash the potatoes right in the soup pot. They will end up in little chunks. Boil for 5 minutes.
- While the potatoes are boiling, shred the kale. Gather some leaves together, roll them the long way, then cut the rolls into fine shreds.
- Bring the soup to a furious boil. Add the kale and cook for 5 minutes or until it is just tender. Add the chourico slices and the salpicao and taste the soup for seasoning. Let simmer very gently for 5 minutes before serving in soup bowls. Drizzle each bowl with a little Portuguese olive oil.

Steps:
- Take whatever greens you are using and stack several leaves on top of each other. Starting at the wide side, roll the stack up into a tight cylinder. Slice across the cylinder with a very sharp knife to make thin, hairlike shreds. Repeat with remaining leaves. Set aside shredded greens.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large kettle over medium high heat. Add sausage slices and fry until lightly colored and fat is rendered, about 10 minutes. Remove from pot with slotted spoon and reserve. Add remaining tablespoon oil to pot, then add onions and salt and pepper. Stir well, then cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, 5 minutes. Add the garlic, stir, and cook one minute until its aroma is released. Add the potatoes, turn the heat to medium high, and saute 3 to 5 minutes until onions and potatoes begin to color. Add the water, cover, and simmer over low heat until potatoes can be mashed easily against side of pot with a wooden spoon, about 25 minutes. When potatoes are soft, turn off the heat and use a potato masher to thoroughly crush and blend. Add the sausage, turn the heat on to medium, and simmer 5 minutes to bring the flavors together. Stir in the greens and cook 5 minutes until bright green and tender. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve.
- This soup, literally Green Soup, could be called the national dish of Portugal. It is traditionally made with a type of flat green cabbage called couve gallego.
- The method of slicing leaves like this is called a chiffonade in the French lexicon. Important to get them thin enough that they will cook quickly.
CHICKEN CALDO VERDE
Traditionally served during weddings and festivals, this Portuguese soup varies from family to family. It is often made with either kale or collard greens. For convenience, we call for chorizo in place of chourico, a similar dried sausage. The soup will thicken as it stands. If reheating, add a little stock or water to thin.

Steps:
- Set a large pot over medium heat and add the chorizo and olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chorizo is crisp and the oil is red and infused, about 2 minutes. Remove the chorizo to a paper towel-lined plate and reserve; leave the oil in the pot.
- Add the chicken broth, onion, chicken thighs, garlic, bay leaf, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 4 cups water to the pot. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook, partially covered, for 15 minutes. Add the potatoes and simmer until both the chicken and potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, 10 to 15 minutes more. Remove the chicken to a bowl.
- Mash the potatoes coarsely with a potato masher to thicken the consistency of the soup. Discard the bay leaf. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, shred the meat and set aside.
- Layer the kale leaves to make a stack. Cut the leaves in half lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch-wide pieces (or tear into 1/2-inch pieces). Add the kale and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the soup, return to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the leaves are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the shredded chicken to the soup and return to a simmer.
- Divide the soup among 6 bowls and serve topped with several pieces of the reserved chorizo.

- In a large pot over medium heat, warm the oil. Add the chouriço and cook until lightly browned on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon remove the sausage to a plate. Try to let the sausage drain well into the pot; its fat will flavor the soup.
- Dump the onions into the pot. Sprinkle with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more.
- Stir in the potatoes, add the water or combination of water and chicken stock, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat so the soup gently simmers. Cook until the potatoes are almost tender, 10 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the soup cool slightly.
