Making of the Old World Cabbage Soup.
“Scrappy” Homemade Vegetable Broth
Instructions
- When preparing vegetables, keep the parts you may ordinarily throw away. Examples: end and greens of carrots and other root veggies, celery, collards and kale stems, onions, beets, outer cabbage leaves, cabbage cores, organic potato ends/ peelings, stems of parsley, cilantro and other herbs. Place them in a large bag in the freezer and add to it every time you cook. When the bag is full (about 1 gallon), place the vegetables in a large stockpot and add 6-10 cups water, depending on how strong you would like your broth and the amount of vegetables. To add additional flavor and nutrients, add 5-10 peppercorns, 1-2 bay leaves, 4 dried juniper berries, and lentils and/or other vegetables, if you like. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for about 45 minutes, until the vegetables are tender, keeping the veggies mostly immersed in the cooking broth. Remove the cover and allow the mixture to cool. In the sink, place a colander over bowl and empty the contents from the stockpot. Squeeze or press down to remove any liquid from the vegetables. Freeze (in ice cube trays for sauté cubes!) or store in the refrigerator until ready to use. Homemade vegetable broth will last up to 1 week, unfrozen. If you can, compost the cooked veggie scraps.

Old World Cabbage Soup
Ingredients
- 1 large red onion chopped
- 3 stalks celery chopped
- ½ large head cabbage roughly chopped into 2-3 inch pieces
- 3 medium ripe tomatoes chopped
- water and/or low sodium broth to cover
- 1 Not-Beef Vegan bouillon cubes Edward & Sons
- 5 garlic cloves chopped
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 15 ounce can crushed tomatoes or tomato sauce
- fresh ground pepper
Instructions
- Heat a large soup pan on high and add chopped red onion. Actively sauté the onion, adding small amounts of water to the pan as the onion browns. Don’t let it burn. After a few minutes, add the chopped tomatoes. Their natural liquid will help prevent burning and help create caramelization. Next add the celery and cabbage plus a splash of broth or water if needed, continue to sauté and stir for a few minutes.
- Add the remaining ingredients and water to cover. Bring to a rapid boil, reduce heat to a medium simmer (low boil) and cover, leaving it ajar for some steam to escape. Cook for 20-30 minutes or until a rich, tomato-like broth develops.
