Tangy Sweet Sour Cabbage Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a large soup pot or dutch oven, brown meat on all sides in olive oil under medium high heat. Season the meat with salt, pepper, or your favorite spices while cooking. When browned all over, remove the meat to a separate plate.
• Add the onion, parsnips, carrots and celery to the pot, plus a little more oil (if needed to prevent sticking). Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until browned and softened.
• Add in the can of stewed tomatoes, cutting up the large slices of tomatoes into smaller pieces.
• Add in the cans of beef consomme and 3 cans of water. You can also use beef broth or French onion soup as well.
• Place the meat back into the pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for one hour.
• After one hour, add the cabbage and sauerkraut to the pot. Again, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer on low heat for another hour.
• After another hour has gone by, add the juice of 2 or 3 lemons to the soup and the brown sugar. You may need more of each to taste, the soup should definitely be sweet, and sour.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine the cabbage, bouillon, tomatoes, tomato sauce, brown sugar, granulated garlic, salt, pepper, cloves and sour salt in a large pot. Add just enough water until you see the cabbage start to float. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 1 hour.
• Add the beef and continue to cook for 1 more hour.
• Adjust the seasoning and remove from the heat.

Steps:

• 1. In a large crock pot or stock pot add all of the ingredients, except for the cabbage. Note that if you less of a tang to your soup, adjust the vinegar from ½ a cup to 1/3 of a cup. If you want a sweeter soup, just increase the measurement by a tablespoon at a time and taste test it until satisfied. Start heating all the ingredients on high if cooking in a crock pot and over medium heat if cooking on the stove top.
• 2. Core the head of cabbage. Cut into quarters and slice the quarters into one inch segments, keeping the shape of the wedge. Then cut the wedge in the other direction so that you end up with spoon sized pieces of cabbage. Add the cut cabbage to the broth, working the cabbage down into the pot as much as possible.
• 3. Cook until cabbage is soft. I cooked mine in the crock pot for six hours on the high setting. Four probably would have been enough, but you can try it and judge for yourself. If cooking on the stove top, this should be about an hour and a half to two hours over medium heat.

Steps:

• Heat a stockpot over medium heat and add bacon. Cook until bacon begins to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in onion and garlic. Cook until onion is transparent, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in broth, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil, about 5 minutes.
• Stir cabbage into stockpot. Simmer until cabbage has wilted, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in stewed tomatoes and liquid. Return soup to a boil, about 5 minutes. Cover and simmer, 15 to 30 minutes, stirring often.

Steps:

• Combine the beef shanks and water in a large stock pot. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a very low simmer. Use a strainer to skim off any foam on the surface. Add the carrot pieces, whole onions, celery stalks, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Simmer for 4 hours, skimming the surface occasionally.
• Strain the stock. Discard the vegetables but reserve the meat. Allow the stock to cool to room temperature, then transfer to a covered container and refrigerate overnight. When the beef shanks are cool, remove the meat from the bones. Discard bones and gristle. Dice the meat and any remaining marrow into small cubes. Cover the container and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, heat the vegetable oil in a stock pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and 1 diced onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika and cook 1 additional minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add the cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly wilted and reduced in bulk, about 8 minutes.
• Remove the beef stock from the refrigerator; skim and discard any fat. Pour the stock into the pot; stir in the reserved chopped beef. Add the tomatoes with their juice. Bring the soup to a boil, and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the soup, partially covered, until the cabbage is quite soft, about 1 hour.
• Stir in the lemon juice, sugar, dill, salt, and pepper. Add more water, if desired, for a thinner soup. Cook for 5 minutes, uncovered. Taste and adjust the seasonings before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in cabbage, celery, onion, and garlic. Cook until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in water and vegetable bouillon. Add diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and vinegar. Continue stirring, slowly adding sugar until broth reaches the desired sweetness.
• Season soup with paprika, cayenne, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, 40 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:

• Crumble the ground beef into a large pot. Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef bouillon cubes, carrots, onion, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Pour in 1 quart of water, and bring to a boil. Stir to break up the beef while heating. Once the soup comes to a boil, cover and simmer for 30 minutes over low heat.
• Pour in another quart of water, and return to a slow boil. Add garlic and cabbage. Simmer for 25 minutes, until cabbage is tender. Ladle into soup bowls to serve.

Steps:

• NOTE: One cup of seasoned rice vinegar is the same as 3/4 cup white rice vinegar plus 1/4 cup sugar plus 2 teaspoons salt. I used this substitution and it was great.
• Spray a large soup pot with some cooking spray, and heat over medium heat. Add onion, and saute until soft.
• Meanwhile, quarter your cabbage, remove the core, and shred the cabbage with a large chef's knife. Add tomatoes, cabbage, undrained mushrooms, and broth to the pot and stir well.
• Add the soy sauce, vinegar, chili flakes and salt. Bring to a boil, cover, then turn heat down to medium low. Simmer for 20 minutes or until cabbage is the desired tenderness.
• Grind a lot of fresh black pepper over the top and serve.
