Savoy Cabbage Soup with Gr\u00fcnkern. Okay, this soup is not going to sell itself. But let me say this… if any cabbage soup is going to satisfy your hopes for a tasty cabbage soup, this could be the one. Although it\u2019s undeniably healthy, this soup is not to be confused with the famous cabbage soup diet. There\u2019s nothing sacrificial about this soup. It has rich, deep flavors and some smokiness thanks to Gr\u00fcnkern<\/a> \u2013 a pleasant surprise for a vegetarian cabbage soup. Hearty, nourishing, and warming, this is something to be enjoyed during the winter months \u2013 simple, tasty, warming comfort food.<\/p>\n\n\n

Cabbage is one of those vegetables that has gotten a bit of a bad rap over the years. It\u2019s a super-healthy, budget-friendly and at sometimes can be considered\u2026. BORING. But it doesn\u2019t have to be! There are so many terrific ways to enjoy it raw or cooked. My favorite way of course is shredded in a salad. Perhaps this is the North American influence of coleslaw<\/a> as a typical BBQ side dish. My absolute favorite is a cabbage salad<\/a> with tahini-lemon dressing. And although I usually enjoy it raw, I was pleasantly surprised to enjoy it warm in a slow-cooked soup. My favorite Schwabe loved this, as it’s reminiscent of German cabbage soup (but without the bacon).<\/p>\n\n\n

Toasted Gr\u00fcnkern adds richness to this savoy cabbage soup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Because the Gr\u00fcnkern is toasted, it brings out even more of its smoky flavor. In turn, it tastes as if the broth was made with a little smoked bacon, since it creates such a rich flavor. I won\u2019t claim brilliance for this, as this recipe is an adaptation from Deb\u2019s Cozy Cabbage and Farro Soup<\/a> from the smitten kitchen, and her version adapted from the original in the cookbook Six Seasons: A New Way with Vegetables<\/a>. The fact that it inspired me at all to make a cabbage soup (which I never thought I would ever do!) and bring me out of my own cooking comfort zone is why I thought I had to share. So if you are fan or cabbage, or simply willing to give cabbage a chance, here\u2019s just the soup to do so.
