It all started with a small head of cabbage. No, actually it started with the recent romaine lettuce problem. As a result of no romaine, my market filled a bin with small heads of plastic wrapped cabbage. Which I mistook for iceberg.

Last week I made an beef, onion and cabbage soup. This week I found a new recipe online, and found many others. I'm thinking I cabbage will become a staple for me this winter.
Which leads to me asking whether there are any cabbage soup afficianados in our group?

Yum! I've never made it, but my Mom's side of the family was Hungarian so cabbage soup and cabbage rolls were part of the meal rotation. Also a potato casserole dish that had cabbage as one of the ingredients.
 
No particular soup recipe. My new favorite use for cabbage is colcannon. OMG I fell in love the first time I had it. Truth be told I love anything potato, but colcannon is :whooopie:.

Didn't exactly follow a recipe, but using what I had:
Beef slices bought on sale. (Looks like what would be used to make fajitas.)
Sauteed in olive oil with sliced onion and bottled chopped garlic.
Salt and pepper.
1 quart water to simmer 30 min
A box of beef bone broth for more flavor.
Add sliced or chopped cabbage, simmer until wilted.
Served with a dollop of Greek yogurt.
 
My Mom used to make a. Cabbage soup from Weight Watchers that included cabbage,any vegetables in the house,tomato juice. I have no idea what else as it was 40-50 years ago but it was fantastic especially on a cold day. She would make a big pot of it and I would stop by and have a few bowls of it almost daily.

I had it at a local Irish pub/restaurant. It sounds weird, but is surprisingly good. The restaurant serves it as a side dish and as a topping for their shepherds pie.
 
If u like cabbage soup, try "fried cabbage"....Cut up cabbage, put olive or regular oil in large skillet ..Heat it up and add cabbage , onion, pepper, small amount of green pepper...Cover with lid and turn from time to time. mmmm good...Add bacon if u want
 
I make a cabbage soup that includes chopped onion and carrots. Like others say, it is great during cold periods. I don't follow any specific recipe.

Best regards.

I knew I'd actually made cabbage soup, but said I hadn't. Definitely was the WW recipe. I still make their Chicken Stew every winter and Chicken Baked in Diet Orange Soda regularly (although it pains me to have to buy a 12 pack, and then two packs of ginger ale or something because that seems to be how pop is sold these days). And for summer their is a fabulous Apple Slaw from WW that I make once a year or so.
 
I love cabbage soup. Mine is basically a vehicle for good paprika. Sometimes I use sweet paprika, sometimes half sweet and half hot paprika, sometimes smoked paprika.

I use this recipe basically. Although I kind of wing it to some extent most of the time.

My grandmother used to make Russian (Jewish) style cabbage soup.
Her unwritten recipe looked similar to this one.
Omit the dill, substitute plum tomatoes for the tomato paste, and have store-bought crushed red pepper available for people to add to taste.

You referenced "Pop", are you from Wisconsin? :D
 
Cabbage greens soup - Ham bone with some meat on it, boiled and drained twice (had a friend tell me to boil to remove a lot of salt, seems to work). Bag of frozen three pepper and onions sautéed with ham bone in pot. Rinse a half bag of dried split peas and dump in pot. Cover with water and sprinkle on garlic powder and black pepper. If want to, add a couple of splashes of olive oil. Bring to boil then partially cover and simmer for about an hour. Check to see if peas are soft. When soft, add about two cups of chopped cabbage leaves for last 15 minutes. Cabbage leaves are the big leaves that grow outside the head. Got a couple of fresh cabbages this summer and had a ziplock of the blanched leaves in the freezer that I saved for soup. Could just use about half a head of cabbage too. Wonderful on a cold winter day. We just had this today.

Ashtabula, Ohio. Pop will always be pop to me, or I'd call it by the brand name, or initials DCPIAGWI (diet cherry Pepsi in a glass with ice).

I'm from Wisconsin that's why I asked. Will always be pop to me. Do you know what a bubbler is too? (Sorry to the OP for hijacking your thread.)

Bubbler is a new one on me. How about a Boston Cooler? (pop with ice cream, aka a float).

Bubbler is a water fountain. Very Wisconsin thing.

Never heard a float called a Boston cooler. But a brown cow is root beer & chocolate ice cream.
