Sorrel or Sourgrass Soup

In France, as in the United States, the wild sorrel, or sourgrass, is picked in the fall and can often be found among the vegetables in the local market. As its name implies, it is a form of grass with a definite lemon flavor, and it makes refreshingly tart soups and sauces.
