Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to cook cabbage soup from sour sauerkraut with mushrooms? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. I use meat broth cooked the day before. If you don’t have ready-made broth, then first you need to cook it. You can make meat or bone broth. You can also make the soup lean by cooking it in vegetable broth or water. So, put a pan of broth (or water) on the stove to heat up. Wash and peel the potatoes.

Step 2

Step 2
Cut the potatoes into small cubes. Send it to the boiling broth.

Step 3

Step 3
After the potatoes, add dried parsley, celery, and parsnips. Bring the broth to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes. The broth should not boil too much, otherwise it will become cloudy.

Step 4

Step 4
Peel the onion and cut it into small cubes. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the onion until soft and translucent. If the sauerkraut you are using already contains carrots (like mine), then there is no need to add it additionally. Otherwise, peel the carrots, grate them on a coarse grater and fry them together with the onions.

Step 5

Step 5
I used frozen legs of boletus, boletus, and boletus.

Step 6

Step 6
Without defrosting, add the mushrooms to the broth with the potatoes and roots. Continue cooking for about 15 minutes more.

Step 7

Step 7
There is no need to specially strain the brine from the cabbage; it will give the cabbage soup a pleasant sourness.

Step 8

Step 8
Place the cabbage in a saucepan, bring the soup to a boil and simmer over low heat for 30-40 minutes. When the cabbage is evenly distributed in the broth, add the sauteed onion, stir, and add salt if necessary. Add bay leaf, herbs and let the soup simmer for another 2-3 minutes. I have frozen and dried herbs: dill, parsley, lovage. I also added suneli hops and ground coriander. Turn off the stove and let the soup brew under the lid for 10-15 minutes.
