This traditional Proven;al dish gets much of its flavor from the vegetables, which can be as varied as you please. Covering the pistou with a layer of olive oil and refrigerating until just before serving prevents discoloration.

Steps:
- Heat a medium stockpot over medium heat, and add olive oil. Add garlic, onions, and chard stems (not leaves); saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add squash and carrot; cook 1 minute more. Add 7 cups water, and cook 8 to 10 minutes. Add zucchini and beans; cook until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in chard leaves, salt, and pepper; cook 1 minute more.
- Make the pistou: Combine sorrel, walnuts, garlic, and Parmesan in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until finely chopped. With motor running, drizzle in 1/4 cup, plus 2 tablespoons olive oil, and process until smooth. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Spoon pistou into a small bowl, and top with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil; refrigerate until ready to use. Stir in olive oil just before serving. To serve, ladle hot soup into bowls; top each with a spoonful of pistou. Serve.
