He suggests you take some onions, carrots, leeks and celery (optional: fennel bulb, whole garlic cloves, mushrooms), plus herbs, of course. Cut the vegetables up small, soften in butter or oil for 10-15 minutes. Add herbs and enough water to cover. Then cover the pan, simmer for no more than 30 minutes.

Added in judicious amounts, of course. But without the tomatoes then, I would say. <BR/><BR/>Sorry, I meant the jota had no body. I have mucked about for ages trying to get soups like this to work. Often stockless soups have more flavour when served only tepid - but this is one soup that I would want warmer than that. <BR/><BR/>The answer, of course, is to make some real vegetable stock, which I think is a lot harder to make than most folk think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-16430609077954254802007-12-10T19:09:00.000+02:002007-12-10T19:09:00.000+02:00Sorry to hear that this wasn't to your liking, Zac...Sorry to hear that this wasn't to your liking, Zac. I disagree with your meat stock comment, however - the cabbage itself, as well as the carrots, onions and seasonings give the soup plenty of flavour. As far as tartness is concerned, then again, carrots and onions sweeten the soup considerably (if cooked properly, of course), and so does the sugar. I often cook sauerkraut with meat, too, but I also take delight in occasional meatless versions of this basic and humble staple. <BR/>I haven't had a chance to try the Polish dish you mention, unfortunately. I'll keep my eyes open for that in the future.Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-80734157983375547262007-12-08T01:27:00.000+02:002007-12-08T01:27:00.000+02:00I'm sorry but I didn't like this.

It requires a decent meat stock to counteract its tart bite. <BR/><BR/>Sauerkraut is good, though, in Polish lazanki - pasta with sauerkraut, white cabbage, bacon, sausage and onions. No cheese, the pasta (little squares) a good bit past al dente. . .Zakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09120999420754223243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1142276210103458022006-03-13T20:56:00.000+02:002006-03-13T20:56:00.000+02:00Nii võib ju juhtuda, et peabki ära proovima :DNii võib ju juhtuda, et peabki ära proovima :DThredahliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15275313477918569026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1142254906079728222006-03-13T15:01:00.000+02:002006-03-13T15:01:00.000+02:00Thredalia - proovi ikka tavalist (või siinset liha...Thredalia - proovi ikka tavalist (või siinset lihata) hapukapsasuppi.

No snow left, just lots of blue and yellow flowers:) <BR/><BR/>Clivia - "fresh" sauerkraut is a good source of vitamin C, and it's also good for your digestion, like all brassica are:) It's definitely a winter soup though, the taste just doesn't go with summer at all. I think..<BR/><BR/>Bea - I hadn't realised how popular sauerkraut is in parts of France (even in Paris, if my newest cookbook, Michael Roberts' "Parisian Home Cooking" is anything to go buy). In Estonia we either have it as a thick stew with meat, or as a soup (usually with meat as well). And yes, it's a bit tangy, and sharp. Very much a comfort food..<BR/><BR/>Thredalia - ma ei ole eales kuulnud piima-hapukapsasupist!?!? Kas Sa jõuluprae kõrvale ka hapukapsast siis ei võta, või on vastumeelsus vaid suppide osas?
