MOM'S BEEF VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• 1. COOKING THE ROAST BEEF: Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. Rub salt on the round beef roast. Put it in a Dutch oven. Add the dry onion soup mix and water.
• 3. Bake in oven for 1 hour. Turn the oven temperature to 300 degrees. Check water level periodically; it is important to maintain the original water level throughout the time the roast is in the oven--add water as needed.
• 4. Cook 2 more hours or until you can easily strip a piece of the beef with the grain of the beef.
• 5. Remove from the oven and let the roast cool in the pan until you can easily touch it. Refrigerate. Let any fat on the broth solidify.
• 6. Remove pan from the refrigerator, remove any congealed fat from the broth, and slice the meat against the grain into thin slices, discarding any fat on the roast. Reserve the broth for the soup.
• 7. Alternately, use this recipe for cooking the beef. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/beef/italian-beef-12.html?r=1. I have been using Italian Beef for my vegetable soup, and I like the results.
• 8. Using the sliced meat, cut 2 cups into small pieces and set aside for the vegetable soup. Use the rest for another purpose: hot beef sandwiches, barbecue, hash, etc.
• 9. COOKING THE VEGETABLE SOUP: When you are ready to cook the soup, heat a soup pot or Dutch oven. Add oil and chopped onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add diced carrots. Sauté for 2-3 more minutes.
• 10. In a small pan, cook the diced celery in water until the celery is tender. (I like to cook the celery separately so that it or the other vegetables are not overcooked.) When the celery is tender, reserve it and its cooking water.
• 11. To the pot with cooked onions and carrots, add the reserved beef broth from the roast, dried parsley, and diced potatoes. Cover and cook for about 6-7 minutes until all the vegetables are tender.
• 12. Immediately, add the frozen corn and peas, stopping the cooking of the potatoes and carrots. Add the cooked celery and its water and the reserved diced beef roast to the soup pot.
• 13. Pour the can of stewed tomatoes into a blender and blend. Add the blended stewed tomatoes and the petite diced tomatoes to the soup pot.
• 14. Heat until all the ingredients are hot and the flavors blend, about 5-10 minutes. Taste and add salt if needed.
• 15. We like our vegetable soup served with shredded cheddar and oyster crackers.
• 16. Note: If you like more broth for your soup than cooking the beef yields, cook a package of onion soup mix in a good quality beef broth, and use as much as you like.

HEALTHY VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the bread on a baking tray with the caraway seeds, half the oil and some sea salt, and bake for 10-15 mins or until golden and crisp. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the garlic, carrot and potato and cook for 5 mins, stirring frequently, until a little softened.
• Add the stock, tomatoes, sugar, bouquet garni, celery and seasoning and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat, simmer for 10 mins, then add the cauliflower and cabbage. Cook for 15 mins until the veg is tender.
• Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and mushroom ketchup. Remove the bouquet garni and serve the soup in bowls with the caraway croutons.

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.
• Bake until crunchy and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Take the crostini out of the oven, drizzle the tops with olive oil and sprinkle sea salt over the top.

MOM'S VEGETABLE SOUP WITH CHICKEN OR BEEF(GERMAN GEMUSE SUPPE)

Steps:

• To an 8 quart stock pot, add beef bone or chicken, water, bay leaf, onion chunks, and sprigs of parsley. Bring to a boil; cover, then simmer about 1 to 1 1/2 hours until beef or chicken is almost done.
• Remove meat bone or chicken to a plate and let cool enough to handle. Strip meat from the bones into chunks (discard bones), and set aside.
• Meanwhile add sliced carrots, leek, chopped celery with leaves, chicken bouillon cubes and pepper (do not add salt). Bring to a boil; cover and simmer 5 to 10 minutes.
• Add the potatoes and the chunks of meat from the cooled soupbone or the chicken; cover and simmer about 35 minutes longer.
• Add cauliflower rosettes, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes. Add chopped fresh parsley and remove from heat.
• Serve steaming hot with a crusty French bread or rolls and butter.
• Makes good leftovers (soup is great on day 1, but tastes even better on days 2-3), and freezes/reheats well.
• VARIATIONS: May add about 6 oz. frozen peas at same time as cauliflower (increase cooking time by about 5 minutes to compensate for the cold peas). I also sometimes add a cup or two of fresh sliced zucchini and/or green beans a few minutes after adding the cauliflower. Also good with sliced hot dogs or kielbasa sausage added during the last 5 minutes or so of cooking time (enough time to heat through).
