This is not the first soup of #SundayCook, I already shared Sunday Cook # 3 - Meat soup (mom's recipe) and SundayCook #26 - Green bean soup welcoming summer time. Watercress soup is easy to prepare and super nutritious.

What is Sunday Cook?!

This Sunday Cook project began with a strong will to contribute to Steemit with my personal view of Portuguese cuisine. I really believe we have plenty of good food. Despite I'm not a professional or nothing similar, I can assure that I'm doing my best, and hopefully, I'm improving my skills too!

On Sundays (cold Sundays), I like to prepare more elaborate and delicious food. It requires time and patience. Usually, I cook some traditional Portuguese food, or at least with Portuguese inspiration :) I try to do it in a healthier way, using the minimum fat as possible, and normally I pick some recipe and transform it. During the week I don't like to spend much time cooking (no time at all), that's why I get totally motivated to cook on Sundays!!

PORTUGUÊS

Eu voltarei com outro SundayCook delicioso :D

Fiquem atentos!!

O que é o Sunday Cook?!

Este projeto iniciou-se com uma grande vontade de contribuir para o Steemit com a minha visão pessoal da cozinha Portuguesa. Eu considero que temos excelentes pratos. Apesar de não ser profissional nem nada que o valha, garanto que tenho feito o meu melhor, e espero estar a melhorar os meus dotes culinários!

Nos Domingos (quando está frio), gosto de preparar comida mais elaborada. Requer tempo e paciência. Normalmente, cozinho pratos da cozinha tradicional Portuguesa, ou pelo menos inspirados na mesma. Tento cozinhá-los de uma forma saudável, usando o mínimo de gordura possível e normalmente pego numa receita e adapto ao meu gosto. Durante a semana não gosto de perder tempo a cozinhar (nada mesmo), e é por isso que me sinto motivada a cozinhar nos Domingos!!

That soup looks so good! I like watercress, especially when I find it wild. Some of the winter mustards would do well in this soup, too, like Wintercress (Barbarea vulgaris) and Bittercress (Cardamine hirsuta). They have a little kick to them, like watercress. Happy cooking!

I love it too, and picking it from a river is even better! Your alternatives look great too! My soups are usually cooked using the same main recipe, sometimes I use pumpkin instead of carrots, turnip instead ofzucchinii and the green leafs according to whats available :) Thank you!! :)
