• Heat olive oil in a stock pot over medium heat. Cook and stir celery, onion, garlic, and bay leaves in hot oil until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomato mixture; cook and stir another 5 minutes.
• Remove and discard bay leaves. Pour water into the stock pot. Stir green cabbage, beef base, herbes de Provence, and red pepper flakes into the water. Loosely cover the stock pot and cook the mixture for 25 minutes.

CABBAGE AND KALE SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Bring the stock to the boil in a large saucepan and add the cabbage and kale. Cook for a few minutes until softened (I did this in 2 batches). Remove the cabbage and kale to a large bowl, leaving the stock in the pan.
• 2. Toast all but 5 of the bread slices or in a toaster or on a cookie sheet in your oven, then rub them on 1 side with the garlic as they come out of the oven or toaster, and set aside.
• 3. Next, heat a large deep fry pan on the stovetop, start to fry your lardons of bacon (lardon is bacon cut into rectangular pieces) now add your anchovies. When the bacon is golden brown and sizzling add the anchovies. Once the anchovies are melted, add the rosemary and cooked cabbage and toss to coat the greens in all the lovely flavors. Put the mixture and all the juices back into the large bowl.
• 4. Place 4 of the toasted slices in the casserole-type dish, in 1 layer. Spread over 1/3 of the cabbage leaves, sprinkle over a 1/4 of the grated fontina and Parmesan and add a drizzle of olive oil. Repeat this twice, but don't stress if your pan's only big enough to take layers - that's fine. Just pour in all the juices remaining in the bowl and end with a layer of untoasted bread on top. Push down on the layers with your hands.
• 5. Pour the stock gently over the top until it just comes up to the top layer. Push down again and sprinkle over the remaining fontina and Parmesan. Add a good pinch of salt if you did not add the anchovies and drizzle over some good-quality olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for around 30 minutes, or until crispy and golden on top.
• 6. This is a great hearty dish for those crisp cool nights!

SPICY SAUSAGE AND KALE SOUP

Steps:

• For the sausage: Heat a dry skillet and toast the fennel seeds until fragrant. Add toasted fennel to the pork along with the Espelette pepper, red chili flakes and a big pinch of salt. Toss and set aside. Over high heat, coat the bottom of a soup pot or Dutch oven with olive oil. Position the meat grinder over the pot. Add 5 whole garlic cloves and the onions to the meat mixture. Turn the grinder on high and run the sausage mixture through the grinder. Use the plunger if needed to push the meat through and into the heated soup pot to brown.
• For the soup: When the sausage has begun to brown and caramelize, add the onions and garlic, roughly chopped, to the pot. Stir the sausage mixture so it doesn't stick to the bottom; then add olive oil and cook 2-3 more minutes. Add the stock and a pinch of salt, scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon, and cover. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
• As the soup comes to a boil, thinly slice the potatoes on a mandoline. Stir them into the soup, making sure the slices come apart. Add plenty of freshly ground black pepper and another pinch of salt. Cover, bring back to a rolling boil, and continue to let boil for 20 minutes.
• Finish the soup: Reduce heat to low and remove lid. The potatoes should be broken down and the soup thickened. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper; then stir in the vinegar. Pull the fibrous stem out of the kale leaves and discard; roughly chop the leaves and add to the soup to wilt. Ladle into bowls and serve with more pepper, salt, a drizzle of olive oil, and a fresh grating of Parmesan.

KALE SOUP

Steps:

• Saute the chopped onion in the olive oil until golden.
• Add chopped kale, carrot and shredded brussel sprout and allow to soften a little.
• Pour over the stock and bring to the boil, adding the sprig of rosemary. Simmer for 45 minutes adding more stock if required. At this stage the soup will be very watery.
• Drain the can of beans, rinse in a colander and then mash with a fork or blend. Add the mashed beans to the soup. This will make th broth a little thicker and give it an interesting texture and flavour.

MOM'S CABBAGE SOUP

Steps:

• For the soup: Heat the olive oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots and garlic and cook, stirring often, until the onions are translucent (not browned), about 8 minutes. Add salt, black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes to your desired preference. Then stir in the fresh tomatoes, canned tomatoes and vegetable stock and bring the entire mixture to a boil.
• Once boiling, stir in the cabbage and beans and keep it simmering, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Add more stock or water if you prefer more liquid and taste and season with more salt and pepper, if necessary. When finished, sprinkle over and stir in the parsley for color and flavor.
• Ladle the soup into bowls and serve with crostini or garlic bread, if desired.
• For the crostini: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the bread slices on a baking sheet. Brush the tops with olive oil. You can also smear minced garlic over the top, if desired.
