Rustic Cabbage Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add carrots, onion, celery, and garlic; cook and stir for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add chicken broth, beans, tomatoes, cabbage, and Italian seasoning; bring to a simmer. Cook until cabbage is tender, about 5 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large thick-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the salt and potatoes.
• Cover and cook until they are a bit tender and starting to brown a little bit for about 5 minutes. It's ok to uncover to stir a couple of times.
• Stir in the garlic and onion and cook for a few minutes until the cabbage softens up a little bit.
• Add the stock and the beans and bring the pot to simmer.
• Stir in the cabbage and cook for another couple of minutes, or until the cabbage softens up a bit.
• Now, adjust the seasonings; getting the seasonings right is important or your soup will taste flat.
• Taste and see if you need more salt.*.
• Note* The amount of salt you will need will be determined by how salty your broth or stock is. Canned broths will sometimes vary between brands and homemade stocks will vary from canned.

Steps:

• In a 4-quart heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high. Add onion, carrot, and cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add marinara sauce and chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add zucchini, reduce heat to a rapid simmer, and cook until vegetables are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add cannellini beans and simmer until beans are heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide soup among four bowls and top with Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• In a four-quart Dutch oven or other heavy pot, cook the bacon on medium heat until lightly browned. Remove, leaving the fat in the pot. Add the beef and cook over high heat until lightly browned. Remove. Return the bacon to the pot and add the onion, celery, garlic and cabbage. Cook on medium heat until the vegetables are soft. Stir in the paprika and zest.
• Return the beef to the pot. Add 7 cups stock, season with salt and pepper and simmer, covered, 30 minutes. Stir in the turnips and groats. Cover and cook 30 minutes. If the beef is not tender, cook it a bit longer. Adjust the salt and pepper and serve with sour cream on top, if desired. If the soup is set aside before serving or refrigerated overnight, more stock may be needed for reheating.

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large thick-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the salt and potatoes. Cover and cook until they are a bit tender and starting to brown a bit, about 5 minutes - it's o.k. to uncover to stir a couple times. Stir in the garlic and onion and cook for another minute or two. Add the stock and the beans and bring the pot to a simmer. Stir in the cabbage and cook for a couple more minutes, until the cabbage softens up a bit. Now adjust the seasoning - getting the seasoning right is important or your soup will taste flat and uninteresting. Taste and add more salt if needed, the amount of salt you will need to add will depend on how salty your stock is (varying widely between brands, homemade, etc)... Serve drizzled with a bit of olive oil and a generous dusting of cheese.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan with a lid. Add the onion, carrots and celery and fry for 10 mins, stirring from time to time until they are starting to colour a little around the edges. Stir in the lentils and cook for 1 min more.
• Pour in the hot bouillon, add the tomato purée and thyme and stir well. Add the leek, cauliflower, courgette, and garlic, bring to the boil, then cover and leave to simmer for 15 mins.
• Add the cabbage and basil and cook for 5 mins more until the veg is just tender. Season with pepper, ladle into bowls and serve. Will keep in the fridge for a couple of days. Freezes well. Thaw, then reheat in a pan until piping hot.
