     Title: Caldo Verde (Portuguese Potato & Collard Green Soup w/Cho
Categories: Potatoes, Greens, Pork
     Yield: 9 servings

     1 lb Collard greens; cleaned,
          - thick stems discarded
     4 md Yukon Gold potatoes; peeled,
          - sliced 1/2" thick
     2 md Yellow onions; ends removed,
          - halved
     2 ts + 1/4 c olive oil; divided
     1    Link (5") Portuguese
          - chourico; in 1/4" coins
          Salt

 Stack the collard greens atop one another, then roll the
 leaves into a tight cylinder. Using a sharp knife, very
 thinly slice the roll crosswise to create fine strands.
 Transfer to a colander in the sink and set aside.

 To a medium Dutch oven set over medium-high heat, add
 the potatoes, onions, and enough cold water to cover the
 vegetables by 2 inches. When the liquid boils, turn the
 heat to medium-low, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil,
 and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with
 a fork and the onion is completely soft, 25-30 minutes.
 Using an immersion or regular blender, puree the soup.

 Bring a large kettle of water to a boil, then pour the
 water over the slivered greens (they will collapse,
 soften, and turn bright green). Set aside for 5 minutes
 to drain and steam slightly.

 Add the chouriço to the soup and cook until the slices
 are firm and their fat has rendered somewhat, 5-10
 minutes. Stir in the remaining olive oil and slivered
 greens, and cook until the greens are tender but still
 green, 2-3 minutes more. Season to taste with salt, and
 serve.
