SOPA DE COUVES: How to Make Portuguese Kale Soup with Linguiça & Potatoes

[@lindasprunk5164]

Traditions are precious ❤️ why did I get so crybaby ❤

[@marcyinspired1442]

My mother-in-law just passed away a week ago today. It's going to be a while before I can even attempt making this soup. This and rice pudding were her signature dishes.

Miss my grandmother's my mothers & my great-grandmother's Portuguese Kale soup thanks for the recipe

[@marcyinspired1442]

Awe. I know what you mean. I miss when my mother-in-law would still cook this for us. But, we've gotta carry on the torch.

[@taniarodrigues8149]

That’s amazing to know a different style everyone does it differently I’m from ilha de São Miguel my grandmother and mother makes it just like that but they add in sweet potatoes and onions and Knorr for the taste that’s amazing 🇵🇹

[@marcyinspired1442]

I'm imagining it with sweet potatoes and I bet it's fantastic! I've only seen São Miguel in pictures, and it's beautiful. Someday, I hope to go see it in person. Thanks for watching!

[@mariakeefe5855]

This is amazing how I came across your video, I’m Portuguese from the island of Terceira !!. Great recipe thank you for sharing

[@marcyinspired1442]

That's awesome. We don't meet many people who even know where that is. It is a beautiful island. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@modesto.california9537]

Olá! Very good job. I enjoy watching the video.

[@marcyinspired1442]

👋🏼 Muito obrigada! I appreciate your comment. 🤗

[@sidnee1968]

The best soup! My grandmother made it all the time. Now my mom does. I love it so much!

[@marcyinspired1442]

I love this soup, too! That's awesome that the recipe is being passed on from generation to generation in your family.

[@lizetearruda3196]

Curly kale is just fine to use as well its a softer texture but taste about the same. i use with curly kale or collards which are couves. I use beef soup bone and chourico which is also a Portuguese sausage. delicious! Your missing the beans 🙂

[@marcyinspired1442]

My husband says you're absolutely right about the beans. Thanks for the comment.

[@janiceseigler6317]

I will definitely put this on my to do list when the Lacinato kale is ready in my fall garden! Thank you Marcy for sharing.

[@marcyinspired1442]

How wonderful that you have Lacinato kale growing in your garden! 👩🏻‍🌾 It’s really difficult to find where I live. Thanks for the comment.

Love this. I'm Portuguese my Grandparents were also from the Azores the island of Sao Jorge. They migrated to Hughson California and Monterey CA many years ago . My mother made Kale soup and I make it as well. I make it and I also use Linguica no ketchup lol but I add a can of bean and bacon soup it's amazing. My Soapa is pretty amazing to. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I'll have to try it sometime. Love Portuguese food. ❤️

[@marcyinspired1442]

My mother-in-law used to add beans to her kale soup, although not all the time. I loved it and definitely miss her cooking...especially her rice pudding. She migrated from Terceira to Sao Salito, but eventually wound up in Galt, CA where she lived most of her life. Thanks for watching and leaving a nice comment.

[@Joey.Darkwoods-Studio]

Grew up eating this soup... my dad is from São Miguel. And this is the version I grew up with... we add some white kidney beans, but no Ketchup... lol

[@fernandom9220]

I've never used meat in my kale soup but I'm definitely going to try it. 😊

[@marcyinspired1442]

If you can find linguiça, it's the best! Thanks for watching.

[@annmariegillaspie5016]

I miss my Vovo ( great grandma's and my grandmothers kale soup 🇵🇹. My great gram was from Lisbon. I just made those RSV last night and it was delicious.

[@marcyinspired1442]

It's amazing how food can bring back memories like that. We just lost my mother-in-law in February and I don't think I can ever have this soup without thinking of her.

[@craftycanto5956]

I don’t know why I’m crying watching this. Uggh I miss my Terceira. Grew up there and my parents and daughter are still there. This soup is amazing! And so excited to learn from someone from Terceira

[@marcyinspired1442]

Awe. It's gotta be hard not living close to your daughter and parents, so it's understandable that certain foods bring back memories and can make you homesick. You definitely grew up in a beautiful place. I've only visited Terceira a couple of times, but I fell in love with the people, the food, and all the beautiful traditions. I hope you can make it back out there soon. Thanks for the comment.

[@craftycanto5956]

@@marcyinspired1442 thank you! I go out every year for Festas da Praia! And btw I made the soup and it was the best over ever made it!!

[@marcyinspired1442]

[@marcyinspired1442]

I agree! Thanks so much for the comment. 🤗

[@anarchy_burger_]

The ketchup and vinegar are such awesome ideas. My mom is from Ilha do Faial also in the Azores. Many times growing up in NJ we had problems finding Linguica or Chourico so she would sub ham hocks or later turkey ham when my parents' blood pressure started to elevate. This is an awesome video. Thank you for the new ideas my family is going to love my new couves.

[@marcyinspired1442]

Thanks so much for the comment. I've never been to the island of Faial, but I've seen pictures and it is SO beautiful. Also loved hearing about how your family made do with with the ingredients they could find. There's a pretty big Portuguese population in northern California, so we never had problems finding linguiça there. But now that we live in Arizona, we can only find it at certain stores, and it is expensive, so we buy it when we want to splurge.

[@anarchy_burger_]

Well there is a company located in Dartmouth, Massachusetts that ships Portuguese products nationwide. Gaspar's Sausage. Awesome Linguica, Chourico and even some fantastic sweet bread

[@marcyinspired1442]

@Edward Ratzell Sounds wonderful. I'll have to check them out. I LOVE Portuguese sweet bread. ♥️

[@saradasilva8162]

You shouldn’t have any trouble finding Portuguese products in New Jersey!! Newark has the most shops and restaurants on ferry street with Portuguese foods

[@RogerGoodeNH]

I use whatever kale I have, including curly kale… and it’s just fine.

[@Gabsgotthetea]

It’s literally so good!! Instead of pork I used chicken 🍗 🤌🏽

[@marcyinspired1442]

That's good to hear. Thanks for commenting!

[@taosjedi]

Wow I've never heard of this, Spanish food is so interesting especially from the Azores. The sausage looked great too. I might try this this winter if I can the sausage, I think I know where. Great job!

[@marcyinspired1442]

Portuguese Linguiça is really good with eggs for breakfast, too. You just slice it down the middle lengthwise & fry it. 👌🏼🍳 (I’ve never had Spanish food in the Azores. I just assumed it was all Portuguese.)

[@ezquad959]

Its not Spanish food dude...its portuguese. Ive never heard of spanish kale soup and i dont anyone who has heard of it either. Acores are the island of Portugal, which is not spanish.

[@imadumass2378]

Spanish? Azores?

[@nesschap]

No beans?

[@marcosdebarros4227]

That's collards...

[@humbertoferreira3833]

Ketchup in na soup!!!poruguese soup not like that
