June is not exactly the best month for hot soup, but since today is Portugal's National Day (also known as Day of Portugal, Camões, and the Portuguese Communities), I figured I would make the one Portuguese dish I already know how to make.
This meal is the first meal for this project that I've cooked in our new kitchen! I miss the natural light of our old kitchen, but I do appreciate having a gas stove again. The soup I made is called caldo verde, Portuguese for "green broth." It's made from potatoes, greens (I used kale), and chorizo. This soup could be considered a national dish for Portugal, and it's also commonly eaten in places with large numbers of Portuguese, like Brazil.
I didn't take many pictures of the process, since it's a very simple soup with so few ingredients.
