Stuffed Cabbage Soup
Description
This soup starts by browning ground beef seasoned with kosher salt and black pepper, then setting it aside. Butter is melted in the pot to sauté onions and chopped cabbage until they begin to caramelize, imparting a slight sweetness. Diced and crushed tomatoes along with beef broth are added, followed by the browned meat, to develop a rich, savory base. The soup simmers to blend the flavors fully.
Finally, cooked rice is incorporated to add body and heartiness, absorbing the savory juices. The result is a flavorful, chunky soup with tender cabbage pieces and ground beef throughout, echoing the ingredients typically found in stuffed cabbage rolls but presented in an easy-to-prepare soup format.
