Months ago, when I last visited Newark\u2019s Ironbound district, I paid a visit to Seabra\u2019s flagship market at 260 Lafayette St; appropriately, it\u2019s the size of a suburban supermarket and is the motherlode of all Portuguese and Brazilian food cravings. I bought too many varieties of Portuguese sausages (my standard MO when I can\u2019t make a decision), did some snackin\u2019, and stashed the rest in the freezer for another time.<\/p>\n

\nThat time, obviously, has come.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nTherefore, with an eye towards preparing the iconic Portuguese kale and chouri\u00e7o soup, kale and potatoes topped the list on my now highly sporadic local shopping trip; I had the other ingredients on hand (chicken broth, canned tomatoes, onions, garlic, herbs and spices). If you\u2019re curious about the sausages, there\u2019s smoky Transmontano and two kinds of Chouri\u00e7o Caseiro (home style), a dry one and a darker, softer number, both made from pork and wine.<\/p>\n

So now, instead of too many sausages in the freezer, I have too much soup. \ud83d\ude15 Wouldn\u2019t it be great if that were the worst of our problems? (Or should I say the wurst? \ud83d\ude09)
