Categories     Sauce     Potato     Side     Kale     Winter     Simmer

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds kale, stems and center ribs discarded and leaves chopped
1 1/2 pounds large boiling potatoes
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the kale in a pot of boiling salted water (1 1/2 tablespoons salt for 4 quarts water), uncovered, until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain, then immediately transfer the kale to an ice bath to stop the cooking. When kale is cool, drain but do not squeeze.
  • While kale cooks, peel the potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Simmer in the cream, salt, and pepper in a heavy medium saucepan, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Purée the potato mixture with the 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.
  • DO AHEAD
  • The PURÉE can be made 1 day ahead and chilled. Reheat over low heat, stirring frequently.

This soup was delicious and so easy to make! I'm not a huge fan of kale, but I really enjoyed this soup. The potatoes and kale were cooked perfectly and the broth was very flavorful. I will definitely be making this soup again.

I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

I was really excited to try this soup, but I was disappointed. The kale was tough and the potatoes were undercooked. I also found the soup to be too salty.

Overall, this was a good soup. It was easy to make and had a nice flavor. However, I found the soup to be a bit too thick for my taste. I would probably add more broth or water next time.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more spices or herbs. Also, the potatoes didn't cook through all the way, so I had to cook the soup for longer than the recipe called for.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out great! The only thing I would change next time is to add a bit more salt and pepper. Overall, this is a great recipe for a healthy and delicious soup.

This soup was easy to make and very flavorful. I liked that I could use frozen kale, which made it a quick and convenient meal. I also appreciated that the recipe didn't call for any heavy cream or butter, so it was a healthier option.

I'm not a huge fan of kale, but this soup was surprisingly good! The kale was cooked perfectly and didn't have any bitterness. The potatoes were also cooked perfectly and were very creamy. I would definitely make this soup again.

This kale and potato soup was a delicious and comforting meal! I loved the creamy texture of the soup and the hearty flavor of the kale and potatoes. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the soup for extra flavor and nutrition.
