Cabbage And White Bean Soup With Sausage Food

WHITE BEAN AND SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Add the peppers, oregano, rosemary, garlic and onions to the pot. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook until the onions are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, beans and tomatoes. Return the sausage to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a low simmer and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes.
• Stir in the kale, heavy cream and apple cider vinegar. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
• To freeze, transfer the soup to containers with airtight lids, leaving space at the top as it will expand as it freezes. Allow the soup to cool completely before placing the lids on and freezing. Reheat until hot before serving and garnish with Parmesan cheese if desired.

SMOKED SAUSAGE AND WHITE BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Soak beans in cold water to cover, overnight (8 to12 hours). Drain beans and rinse well.
• In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, or until browned. Remove the sausage from the skillet and reserve. Add the onions and cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, an additional minute.
• Add the browned sausage back to the stockpot. Stir in the beans, bay leaves, and thyme. Add the chicken stock, water, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Bring soup to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer and cook, partially covered for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Skim off any fat, as necessary, if desired. (The cook time may vary depending on the beans, but they should be tender and falling apart when finished.)
• Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, if needed. Using a potato masher or the flat side of a spoon, gently mash the beans against the bottom and sides of the stockpot, leaving some of the beans whole and some mashed. Continue to simmer the soup for 30 minutes, uncovered, or until desired consistency.
• Ladle the soup into bowls. Serve hot, with crusty bread slices.

CABBAGE AND WHITE BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large thick-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
• Stir in the salt and potatoes. Cover and cook until they are a bit tender and starting to brown a bit, about 5 minutes - it's o.k. to uncover to stir a couple times.
• Stir in the garlic and onion and cook for another minute or two. Add the stock and the beans and bring the pot to a simmer.
• Stir in the cabbage and cook for a couple more minutes, until the cabbage softens up a bit.
• Now adjust the seasoning - getting the seasoning right is important or your soup will taste flat and uninteresting. Taste and add more salt if needed, the amount of salt you will need to add will depend on how salty your stock is (varying widely between brands, homemade, etc) --
• Serve drizzled with a bit of olive oil and a generous dusting of cheese.
• Leave off the cheese to make it vegan.

BACON, CABBAGE, AND WHITE BEAN SOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, saute your diced bacon for about five minutes until it starts to release its fat. If it's really fatty, drain some, so that you keep about a tbsp of bacon fat in the pot. Add your carrots, onion, and garlic. Cook for about 10 min, until vegetables are soft.
• Add your chicken broth, water, and all of your spices except for the salt (be cautious with the salt--this soup can easily get too salty). Cover pot with lid. Bring to a boil. Add the beans and the cabbage, and let come to a gentle boil again. At this point, bring it to a gentle simmer on a lower heat and let it simmer away for about 30 minute Stir every once in a while so nothing sticks to the bottom.
• Taste and adjust seasoning. If you'd like, add the tsp of salt here, if it needs it. If you find you want to bring out the sweetness of the cabbage just a touch because your bacon is too smokey, add the sugar. (I liked the small bit of sugar.).
• Simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes, adjusting seasonings as needed. Discard your bay leaf and serve. Garnish with a tbsp of freshly grated Parmesan (it adds a really nice nutty depth to the soup.).
• Stored in an airtight container, soup will keep well in the fridge for about 3-4 days.
