Steps:
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, boil the wine until reduced to 1/2 cup, 7 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
- In a soup pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the sausage and cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let cool, then cut diagonally into 1/2-inch slices.
- In the same pot over medium-low heat, cook the onion, celery, carrot and leek, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes more. Add the reduced wine, the stock and water, increase the heat to medium-high and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Add the sausage, white beans and chard and cook until the chard wilts, 5 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

SWISS CHARD AND RICE SOUP
In the late spring and early summer we are surrounded by great big bunches of chard with wide stems and lush leaves, tender leeks, the last of the fava beans, first of the green beans and the first of the summer squash, still small and delicate. In not a lot of time, you can do what the French do: make soup. Rice will bulk up the soup. Though a starchy medium-grain rice like Arborio works, this recipe uses white basmati, which swells to four times its original size when cooked. You could try using brown basmati rice, but the color of the soup will be duller. If you're looking for an easy way to reduce your calorie intake, these soups will help. They're filling and light, and make great low-calorie meals. This is a simple and comforting soup that is especially delicious in the spring, when Swiss chard is at its sweetest and most tender.

Steps:
- Trim the bottoms of the chard stems. If the stems are thin and fibrous, separate the leaves and discard the stems. If they are wide, separate the leaves and cut the stems into 1/4-inch dice. Set aside with the celery and onion. Wash the leaves in 2 changes of water and chop medium-fine.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy soup pot and add the onion, celery and chard stalks. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes, and add a generous pinch of salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, another 3 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the stock or water, bouquet garni and rice. Bring to a boil, add salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 10 minutes.
- Stir the chard into the soup, cover and simmer another 10 minutes. Add freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust the salt. Serve with fresh lemon wedges for people to squeeze into their servings if desired and Parmesan for sprinkling.

SWISS CHARD & POTATO SOUP
This soup comes from Lucy Waverman's St. Patrick's Day menu in the Globe and Mail (March 2009). Lucy Waverman notes "My grandmother used spinach to make this soup, but it tends not to have a strong enough taste for the potatoes; Swiss Chard matches much better." Cooking time includes puree time. It is also fine without the garnish. Serve with fresh buns or bread.

Steps:
- Heat butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onions and swiss chard stems and saute for 2 minutes or until softened.
- Add potatoes, chicken stock and milk and bring to a boil.
- Simmer soup for 5 minutes; add swiss chard leaves (reserving 1/4 cup for garnish) and simmer 5 minutes longer or until potatoes are very soft and chard is wilted.
- Puree soup in a blender or food processor (An immersion blender also works well). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish:.
- Heat oil in a small skillet over medium high heat. Working in batches, add Swiss chard (be careful, as it will pop and splatter oil) and fry for 1 to 2 minutes or until crisped.
- Drain on paper towels.
- Garnish soup with crinkled Swiss chard.
ZUPPA DE CLAMS (OR MUSSELS)
This is a delicious Italian first course soup, as good with mussels as it is with clams. The servings are large, so adjust accordingly if desired. Time does not include preparing the clams. This is pretty much the soup I would get when I'd order it in New York family Italian restaurants. You can add a bit of clam broth if you like, but steaming the claims in the broth as is gives it a nice flavor. And in this version, the tomatoes, not paste, would be used.

Steps:
- Wash and dry the clams and soak them in a large bowl in cold, salted water for about 30 minutes.
- Any remaining sand should fall to the bottom of the bowl.
- Drain the clams and rinse them well in a colander under running water.
- Crush one clove of garlic, and slice the remaining cloves very thin.
- In a large, heavy pan, sauté the crushed garlic until it begins to brown, then remove from the pan and discard.
- Add the remaining sliced garlic and the parsley.
- Cook over very low heat for 2 to 3 minutes, then add the tomatoes and enough liquid to just make a slightly soupy dish.
- You don't want too much liquid in this, but judge the amount to your taste.
- Season with the salt and pepper, then raise the heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes.
- (Add more liquid if necessary).
- Add the clams, lower the heat again, cover pan, and let steam for about 10 minutes, or until the shells have opened and the clams are ready.
- Discard any unopened clams.
- Sprinkle with more freshly ground pepper and the basil, if desired.
- (You can substitute a teaspoon of dried if you wish).
- Serve in shallow bowls with slices of bread for dunking.
HAM, BEAN AND SWISS CHARD SOUP
I saw a similar recipe made on TV and tried to duplicate it in order to use up an abundance of Swiss chard that I got from the farm this summer. We have been enjoying it regularly, so I thought I would share it here.
