Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 pounds kale, stems and center ribs discarded and leaves chopped
1 1/2 pounds large boiling potatoes
2 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cook kale in a pot of boiling salted water (1 1/2 tablespoons salt for 4 quarts water), uncovered, until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain kale, then immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. When kale is cool, drain but do not squeeze.
  • While kale cooks, peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Simmer in cream with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a heavy medium saucepan, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Purée potato mixture with kale in 2 batches in a food processor until just smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids). Transfer to a 4-to 5-quart heavy saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.

I'm not usually a fan of kale, but this soup changed my mind! The kale was cooked perfectly and had a great flavor. The soup was also very creamy and comforting.

This soup was easy to make and packed with flavor. I especially loved the crispy bacon and the tender kale.

This kale and potato soup was a delicious and hearty meal! The kale added a lovely green color and a slightly bitter flavor that balanced out the creamy potatoes. I also loved the addition of the bacon, which gave the soup a smoky and savory flavor.
