The flavors of the vegetables meld together seamlessly with only a hint of smoky salted bacon, lemony thyme, and nutty Gruyere cheese. Serve this with good bread and a bottle of wine for a hearty meal. Ingredients: § 7 slices bacon § 4 cups chicken stock § 3 cups water § 2 onions, chopped § 2 leeks, washed and thinly sliced § 2 carrots, finely chopped § 1 clove garlic, crushed and chopped § 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme § 2 medium potatoes, chopped § 8 cups chopped cabbage § 1/2 teaspoon salt § 1/4 teaspoon pepper § 1/2 cup grated Gruyere (optional, for garnish) Preparation: In a large saucepan, fry the bacon until it is cooked through, but not crispy and browned. Remove 5 slices of the bacon, drain them on a paper towel-lined plate, and chop into small bits. Continue cooking the remaining bacon until it turns crisp and brown. Transfer the crispy bacon to a separate paper towel-lined plate and allow it to drain; crumble and reserve the browned bacon. Drain the bacon fat from the pan and return the chopped, non-browned bacon to it. Add the water, chicken stock, onions, leeks, carrots, garlic, and thyme to the pan and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat slightly and simmer the ingredients for 30 minutes. Add the potatoes, cabbage, salt, and pepper to the pan and continue simmering the soup for 1 hour. Serve the cabbage vegetable soup garnished with the reserved, crumbled bacon and grated Gruyere cheese. This cabbage soup recipe makes 6 to 8 servings. . nuisance likes this.  |
