  Wash the sorrel leaves and cook them in the butter
  until just wilted. Pureé the sorrel and add other
  ingredients, dissolving the cornstarch first in a
  little stock, or whirl all together in the blender.
  Then cook the soup over gentle heat until slightly
  thickened. Serve hot or chilled, garnished with sour
  cream and chives, or with thin slices of lemon.
