| Recipe ingredients and
instructions: In a heavy Dutch oven (you'll want a pan big
enough to hold a small to medium head of "chunked" cabbage, heat
1/4 cup of water to boiling.
Add and stir until dissolved:
1/2 teaspoon
Minor's Roasted Onion Flavor Concentrate
1/2 teaspoon
Minor's Roasted Mirepoix Concentrate
1 1/4 teaspoon
Minor's Chicken Broth Base
1 teaspoon
Minor's Ham or Bacon Base
Once bases are dissolved in the water, add:
1 3/4 cup waterBring to boil.
Add:
2 cups diced potatoes*
Cover and boil until potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat to low (simmer) and add:
rough chopped cabbage
(an entire small to medium head)
Simmer covered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender --
10-15 minutes.
OPTIONAL:
American cheese slices or cheddar cheese**
Ladle into bowls and enjoy!
PERSONAL NOTES:
This soup has the full-bodied flavor you'd expect from
one you've simmered all day. It's delicious!
*I have to be careful with potatoes. Unless I peel them THICK, they
often have a mildewed taste. Wasteful, but it usually works for me.
**I can no longer tolerate Kraft American Singles; for me, preservatives in
some other brands have triggered migraines. I now stir some grated mild
or medium cheddar cheese into my soup. I prefer this soup with less
broth; that way there's more cabbage and potatoes in each
helping. If you like more broth, double the amounts for the
water and the Minor's
bases. To learn more about Minor's Bases, see:
