00:00 We're still in the throes of soup season,
00:01 and I'm showing you how to make
00:02 our top-rated beef cabbage soup recipe.
00:04 So good.
00:05 This cabbage soup, while it is nutritious,
00:07 is not to be confused with the diet cabbage soup,
00:10 because this does have beef in it.
00:12 This is Allrecipes' top-rated recipe for cabbage soup.
00:15 So the recipe starts just by heating some olive oil,
00:18 and we're gonna brown our onion and ground beef together.
00:21 My mom has made cabbage soup,
00:23 and she usually used beef short ribs,
00:25 so any kind of beef is just gonna really make
00:27 this soup really rich.
00:28 Once our onion and beef are browned,
00:30 I'm going in with some carrot.
00:32 That is not a part of this actual recipe,
00:34 but my mom always has carrots in her cabbage soup,
00:36 so I just had to do it.
00:38 This recipe also calls to make the rest in the slow cooker,
00:42 but because I'm trying to give it to you right now,
00:44 I'm gonna do it on the stove top.
00:45 In with some kidney beans.
00:47 Lots of cabbage, but we know this is gonna cook down.
00:50 Some tomato sauce, about one and a half cans.
00:53 Some cumin, and water.
00:57 That tomato is gonna make a delicious broth,
01:00 and to enhance that, I'm going in with some beef bouillon.
01:03 I love using the bouillon paste.
01:05 Recipe calls for the cubes of beef bouillon.
01:08 Either one works just fine.
01:10 I guess I'm just being a rebel today,
01:11 putting my own spins on this recipe.
01:14 And then just season it up with some salt and pepper.
01:16 As it cooks down, the cabbage is gonna release its liquid,
01:18 and it's gonna be nice and brothy.
01:21 Doesn't get much easier than that.
01:22 Gonna cover it up and let it do its thing.
01:26 Oh yeah, look at this goodness.
01:30 All that cabbage cooked down, it's so tender.
01:35 Like with all of my slow cooked soups,
01:37 I love to finish it off with fresh parsley.
01:39 It doesn't alter the flavor,
01:40 but it just kinda adds that burst of freshness.
01:42 So I'm gonna go in with some fresh parsley and dish it out.
01:45 And I'm just gonna finish it off
01:48 with a little more fresh parsley and some cracked pepper.
01:51 Smells really good.
01:53 This is a great base recipe that you could always
01:55 kinda switch things out according to what you have on hand
01:58 or to your liking.
01:59 Like if you wanted to turn this into the cabbage roll soup,
02:01 all that is is just switching out a few spices.
02:03 Mm, does kinda remind you of a stuffed cabbage roll.
02:10 With that ground beef, it's so hearty,
02:12 so full of flavor, give it a try.
02:14 (beep)
02:14 (bang)
02:15 Yeah.
