Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons, softened, for serving
1/3 cup minced onion
3 cups packed sorrel leaves, washed, dried, and cut into thin strips
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 cups Basic Chicken Stock, boiling
2 large egg yolks
3/4 cup heavy cream
Creme fraiche or sour cream, for serving
Fresh chervil, chopped, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add onion and cook, without browning, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add sorrel and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir over low heat for about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle in flour and cook, stirring, over moderate heat for 5 minutes. Stir in boiling stock. Simmer for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a small bowl, beat yolks lightly with cream. Whisking constantly, slowly pour 1 cup hot stock mixture into egg mixture, then return back to saucepan. Do not let soup boil after egg yolks have been added or yolks will curdle.
  • Stir in softened butter and serve hot with a dollop of creme fraiche and chervil. If serving the soup chilled, do not add the softened butter.

Rich, strong-flavored soup. We call this weed soup as sorrel grew like weeds. Adjust quantities of sorrel, stock, cream (or evaporated milk) to taste.

BABA'S BEST SORREL SOUP



Baba's Best Sorrel Soup image

This hearty, herbed soup has a wonderful old-world flavor! After I had experimented with and tweaked several sorrel soup recipes, my 88-year-old father-in-law declared it tasted like his mom made back in Poland - the ultimate compliment! It doesn't look like much, but is it ever tasty and filling. Use fresh sorrel in the spring, when the leaves are most tender. Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with your favorite fresh herbs - parsley, dill, or cilantro. Serve with crusty bread or hearty biscuits.
