    Kale and Italian Sausage Soup Recipe Recipe

    Kale and Italian Sausage Soup Recipe
  • Prep Time:
  • Cook Time:
  • Recipe Description:

    A wonderful, quick, warming, and nourishing soup. This will serve 3, generously.

    Recipe Ingredients:

  • 2 cups homemade chicken stock
  • 1/2 pound nitrate-free Italian sausage
  • 1/2 pound fresh tender kale
  • 1 large onion
  • 3 potatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 cups filtered water
  • unrefined sea salt to taste
  • 1 Tablespoon kettle-rendered lard
  • Recipe Instructions:

    Slice the Italian sausage into little rounds. If you have time to freeze it first, this makes the slicing easier.

    Peel the onion and chop coarsely.

    Scrub and cube the potatoes.

    Wash and drain the kale. Remove the tough ribs. Roll together, then slice the roll and finish by slicing in the other direction. This is an easy way to "chop" kale.

    Peel and dice the garlic cloves.

    Melt 1 Tablespoon lard in a heavy bottomed soup kettle on medium/low heat.

    Add to the kettle, the sausage, onion, and garlic. Saute, stirring, until the onion is translucent.

    Add the chicken stock, 2 cups water, kale and potatoes. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce to simmer.

    Simmer for 20 minutes. Check to see if it needs more salt, but it probably won't.

    Fabulous on its own or served with some fresh crusty bread and real butter!
