Creator Notes
A comfy soup with kale and beans cooked in a sizzling, clear broth is the plentiful medication for iciness blues. I verbalize duck broth to add richness and flavor, and add poached eggs to crown this wholesome take care of. In case you nick thru the yolk, the golden liquid sinks into the vegetables, lending an nearly creamy essentially feel to the soup. And as well it’s seemingly you’ll perchance flip any leftover kale leaves into a gleaming pesto.
