Steps:

• Add the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
• Add 1 tsp dried basil, ½ tsp oregano, 1 pinch of cayenne, 1 tsp hot sauce, ½ tsp mustard powder, ¼ tsp pepper. Stir to combine.
• Add the chicken broth and use a silicone spatula to "clean" the bottom of the pot. Add the cream. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer.
• Add the kale and tortellini and simmer for 3-5 minutes. (If your tortellini needs longer cooking time, add the tortellini first, then the kale during the last 5 minutes.)
