The best cabbage soup you will ever try and plus it is easy to make.

When ever I make Ukranian or Russian Cabbage Soup and have no lemon or citric acid, I take a Vitamin C tablet and throw it in. That takes care of the citric acid. Have been using this for years and it really works well.

I guess, no matter how it is cooked, cabbage really isn't our thing (despite the fact that we got about 20 of them last year from our CSA!). I'm glad I tried this, but I won't be making it again.

I have used this recipe before - it has been handed down in my family for many generations. I have found that you can substitute lemon juice for the citric acid with almost the same results.
I was looking for a sweet & sour cabbage soup, so I "bumped" this one a little bit: 1/3 c. apple cider vinegar and 1/3 cup sugar in place of the citric acid and the sugar in the recipe gave the soup just the flavor I was looking for. To keep the cabbage a little crisper, don't add it until the last 1/2 hour of the cooking time. This soup is definitely better the 2nd day!
Great soup. We added more vegetables. The soup needed a lot more flavoring. We added a lot (way too much) of salt. Next time we make this, we are going to use chicken stock or vegetable stock. Thanks for the recipe.
This turned out really good but I did add a little more to spice it up. I added minced garlic, black pepper, salt & cayenne pepper. Thanks!
We forgot the tomato's and it was still wonderful. The second day we added the tomato's and it had a totally different taste. 2 meals in 1. Everyone loved it.
I receive a head of cabbage each month through Angel foods and soup is about the only thing my family will eat so soup it is! This was very good although I did add a large can of tomato juice and also used homemade chicken broth sitting in the freezer instead of water.
This soup was delicious! The only thing I did differently was omit the beef and left it as just a veggie soup.
Turned out to have a nice deep flavor. At first it seemed like there wouldn't be enough water for the vegetable ratio but the vegetables shrunk a bit. I didn't know what spices to throw in to really get it flavorful. I added a little garlic and pepper. Next time I might throw in a few pasta noodles. Was very hearty and traditional.

Turned out bland.
Add a can of tomato soup.been doing this for years.makes it very tasty
We love this soup. My son pointed out out, although the soup is delicious, ours didn't look like the picture. Lol. The picture has peas in it. I told him peas wasn't an ingredient so I was not adding them. Thank you for a wonderful and easy recipe.
Wonderful change from the "usual" soups. Tasty and sticks to your ribs. Easy to make and even my wife gave it two thumbs up. Doesn't get better than that!
I made this.it was fantastic. Less sugar next time. Keep the burger b Bigger bites
This was my first time cooking with cabbage, so I was apprehensive! I made this recipe exactly as written. It tasted pretty bland; so I would rate it a 2. To give it more flavor, I added more sugar and some Lowry's seasoned salt. I would rate it a 3 or 4 with my modifications.
