How to Prepare Cabbage Soup

  1. Start the Flavor Base: Begin by heating two tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Then add the chopped carrots, diced yellow onion, diced celery rib, ¾ teaspoon of sea salt, and a few grinds of fresh black pepper. Stir these occasionally and cook for about 8 minutes until they start to soften.
  2. Add Vinegar and Tomatoes: Pour in two tablespoons of white wine vinegar, give it a stir, and then mix in the two cans of fire-roasted diced tomatoes. The vinegar will add a nice tanginess that complements the smoky flavor of the tomatoes.
  3. Combine Remaining Ingredients: To the pot, add four cups of vegetable broth, a can of drained and rinsed cooked white beans, grated garlic cloves, diced Yukon gold potatoes, chopped green cabbage, and a teaspoon of dried thyme. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 20 to 30 minutes. The soup should be left to simmer until the potatoes and cabbage are tender and infused with the flavors.
  4. Final Touches: After the vegetables are cooked to your liking, season the soup according to your taste preferences. Finish by garnishing it with freshly chopped parsley. This not only adds color but a burst of fresh flavor to the dish.
