   Wash the sorrel leaves and cook them in the butter
   until just wilted. Puree' 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.
