Braised Red Kapusta Soup Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Put about 3 tablespoon oil in a soup pot and get it hot. I add the rind too because it has lots of flavor in it but remove it after the pork is all browned and discard once the salt pork has browned really well and remove it.
• 2. In the same pot brown the sausage, remove it and add it to the salt pork.
• 3. In the same pot { I just love one pot meals, don't you? } put the red onions, garlic and sugar and sauté till the onions are translucent. Let the oil cool down first because you don't want to burn the garlic. Sauté the onions and garlic on a very low heat. At this point if there is a lot of oil in the pot spoon it out but leave the fond.
• 4. Now add the meats back to the pot with the onions and add the tomato puree, water, beef broth, butter beans, tomatoes and wine {remove from the heat before adding the wine} give this a good stir.
• 5. Bring this to a boil and then turn down, add the cabbage and salt { if necessary } and pepper.
• 6. Turn this down to a simmer and cover and cook it for about 1 hour.
• 7. 10 minutes before the soup is done, add the potatoes. You'll only need to get them hot as they are already cooked.
• 8. This is not a meaty soup, but it is hearty and satisfying! The salt pork and sausage gives it a wonderful meaty flavor.
