      Well, you weren't wrong. The people of Galicia make a Caldo Gallego that is very similar and since Portugal and Galicia are very similar cultures, I don't think you need to be forgiven. Love the caldo. Thanks for the great recipes. You even have my husband watching.

    If you can find chouriço, use that instead of linguiça. Tightly packing the kale and cutting it into thin shreds are more traditional than a rough chop. For a smoother/silkier potato base, use a hand blender instead of a masher. And always finish off with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Glad to see the Portuguese cuisine be promoted!

    Here in South Africa we do it the Mozambique way with hot, spicy piri piri chouriço instead of linguica, the potatoes rubbed through a fine grid of the mouli legume and the kale stacked and rolled into big cigar shapes and cut into thread-thin shreds that almost but not quite melt into a puree. Otherwise the recipe is pretty much the same, but the texture is of a green smooth almost-puree studded with ruby discs and the appearance is gorgeous. Serve with lots of red wine, Portuguese bread-rolls, good companionship and argumentative conversation.

    Looks so delicious! Here in Hawai'i, where there's a definite Portuguese influence on food, Portuguese bean soup is a comfort food, though there are infinite variations. My mother-in-law's recipe is the most awesome I've ever seen. I'll send it to you if you wish, but beware. The full recipe results in 3-4 gallons of soup (or more like a stew). My beloved mom used to make it for New Year's. A steady stream of relatives and friends would arrive after mass and drain the vast vat. Typical of Hawai'i, the recipe includes Chinese and other influences (such as mustard cabbage and a 5 lb. canned ham). I miss those days. We usually don't make this special dish any more because there's so few of us left. We can't eat it all.

      Where I live, kale soup and Caldo Verde are two different, distinct things. Every restaurant serves kale soup, which has beans and often beef as well as the linguiça and has a thin broth with chunks of potato. Caldo Verde is as chef John makes it here. There is also a green bean soup, which is a broth thickened with potato and carrot, with string beans and linguica added.

    Caldo verde is one of the best soups to have on the cold, wet, foggy winters of northern Portugal and Galicia. One hundred percent peasant food that went “chic”. Fortunately, linguiça and kale are not too expensive, so the poor people can still enjoy it. You can do variations of this with a firm flesh fish, like swordfish.

    Just wanted to say for chef John and most people who wanna try it, that traditionally this soup is made with a dark leaved cabbage more similar to collard greens than kale. This has been lost in translation in many a food blog and recipe book. We call them "couve-galega"or "couve-de-folhas"(roughly translates to Galician cabbage or Leafy cabbage)
    Again, "traditionally", you use whatever you prefer! They're all from the same family after all.

    I've been making this recipe for years (5 years, apparently) and it's one of my favorites. I've adapted it to my own liking over the years, and have a few recommendations. I like to use a stick blender for mashing up the potatoes to get them extremely smooth, similar texture to a potato and leek soup. I'll then add a second batch of diced potatoes with the kale and sausage so I get some tender big chunks as well. Also, I like to start the soup base by frying up some diced bacon, then reserving the bacon bits for a garnish at the end.

    • @Hazelminker
      @Hazelminker 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Suzanne Baruch It's one of those dishes that an image doesn't make it Justice!
      imagine a sandwich with linguica, fresh sausage, ham , and a steak all stacked up between two slices of bread ( a different thicker kind so it doesnt melt with all the sauce ) covered with usually four slices of cheese so they melt over the thing.
      Top that with a sauce that varies from place to place, while some are spicy, others are more silky or even have stronger beer taste.
      The sauce is considered " a secret " you can make it at home with the standard recipe for it. but those extra touches each restaurant adds to their sauce makes the Francesinha one of the best dishes to eat when going out with friends :)

    I made a large batch of this minus the potatoes and canned it in quart jars. When I open it I cook the potatoes in with the soup and serve. Its handy to open a jar on a cold evening.
    The only caveat is the kale cooks to a mush during the canning process, which I happen to like.
    This is hands down one of the most flavorful dishes I have tried.

      the portugese get WAY too little credit for their culinary influences. They were one of the main reasons that chili peppers, tomatoes, curry dishes, and various spices were spread globally and they tended to bring foods from 1 country to another thanks to their trading and colonial empire with foods like Tempura, custard tarts, various wines like Port actually being Portuguese in origin.

    It’s really nice to see on your channel a beloved recipe from my own country. For it to be even more like we make it, the linguíça should be a chouriço instead (although it is pretty similar), the kale should be cut in very thin stripes and the potatoes should be pureed with a staff mixer, but otherwise you did very well and the result is very pleasing just the same.

  • @klimtkahlo

    Yes! Getting Spaniards confused with Portuguese is definitely unequivocally “no bueno”. It could even render you the title of “persona non grata” in Portugal. And you surely want to visit Portugal because there is a tone load more delicious food where this caldo verde came from, which is exclusively Portuguese: not Brazilian, no Galician and not Spanish! Awesome work on your Caldo Verde! A+
