Lighthouse Point Yacht And Racquet Club Beef And Cabbage Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Spray inside of a large size dutch oven pot with non stick cooking spray; add ground beef.
• Cook beef over medium heat until it's crumbly and no longer pink.
• Add beef broth, tomatoes, onion, thyme, pepper and bay leaf.
• Bring to a boil over high heat; cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Add cabbage and beans, turn heat up to high and bring to a boil.
• Cover and simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
• Remove bay leaf and serve.

Steps:

• In a large soup pot cover the beef, tomatoes, onion, bay leaf and garlic with cold water.
• Let stand for 1 hour and simmer covered for 3 hours.
• Remove the bay leaf, add cabbage, sugar, onion, salt and pepper.
• Simmer for 15 minutes more.
• Remove from heat, add lemon juice and offer Sour Cream at the table.

Steps:

• Trim beef, saving fat. Cut beef into 1/2-inch cubes and fat into 1/4-inch cubes. In a non-reactive large pot about 6-8 quarts, add bacon and beef fat. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until all fat has been rendered(given up it's fat) and remaining pieces of fat and bacon are brown but not burned. Remove browned fat and bacon pieces and set aside. Leave liquefied fat in pot.
• Saute` onions, carrots, celery and green peppers, about 4 minutes or until soft and fragrant. Add beef, raise heat to medium high and saute`meat about 3 minutes or until just beginning to take on color. Return browned pieces of fat and bacon to the pot.
• Stir in wine, A-1 sauce, salt, pepper, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, thyme and caraway seeds. Stir about 1 minute. Pour in 8 cups water and add crumbled crumbled beef bouillon cubes(or base) have dissolved completely.
• Add cabbage and roasted peppers; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer several minutes, or until scum stops accumulating on top. Partially cover and continue to simmer 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Skim again, if needed. Taste for seasonings and if too thick, add more water (I used the 9 full cups at the end.

Steps:

• In a large pot, put cut-up cabbage and raw ground beef, diced onion and all ingredients EXCEPT for the tomato paste.
• Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat until the meat and cabbage are done. (NOTE: You do not have to drain the fat from the ground beef.) (The cabbage and beef usually get done at about the same time--if not, just cook a little longer till the cabbage is done.).
• Turn heat down to low, add the tomato paste and cook about 15 minutes longer.
• I usually add a little salt and pepper as I cook, then season again to taste when the soup is finished.
