This is the best version of caldo verde that I've tasted.The seasonings really make this soup special. I used homemade stock, and had to substitute Spanish chorizo (not the same thing as Mexican chorizo!) because I live in an area where there is no Linguisa. Highly recommended.

- Comments: "I'm an American of Portuguese descent," says Pix Stidham. "A staple in any Portuguese household is a soup called caldo verde, or possibly kale soup. It hit the spot whenever we were feeling bad."
