Notes

  • NOTES:
  • The use of vinegar is optional, but just a touch of it will help balance all the warm, earthy flavors going on in this soup.  
  • If you don't have vinegar, a tiny bit of lime or lemon juice will also do the trick.
  • I have made this with both green and brown lentils.  Use your favorite!
  • Curly kale is my favorite in soup, but you could also use lacinato kale, aka Tuscan kale/dinosaur kale.
