My favorite cabbage soup without meat, I cooked a seasonal version. I replaced the tomato sauce with fresh tomatoes, added sweet peppers and fried it all with onions and carrots. I shredded the cabbage using a grater with one blade. I cooked frozen fresh dill along with cabbage. And as a lover of spices and seasonings, I added a universal mixture. It turned out to be an excellent light soup.

On pre-/post-holidays I always prepare light soups. Cabbage soup comes first. Before cooking, I decided to compare my skills with the experience of experts. This recipe, in my opinion, is the best of the small number of recipes for cabbage soup without meat. I followed all the proportions when cooking. Using the author’s advice, I made some changes to the ingredients: added turnips and sun-dried tomatoes. Traditionally, I cook vegetable soups using concentrated vegetable broth. This time I took the risk of preparing cabbage soup without frying it, so I didn’t use onions. The result pleased me not only with its taste, but also with its aroma and color. The broth has a rich, characteristic color for cabbage soup. Thick, as the author promises in the recipe, rich. But without the heaviness of the meat component. A wonderful recipe. Thank you.
