RUSSIAN CABBAGE SOUP (SHCHI)

Steps:

• In a large pot (I use 6 quart Dutch oven), add beef, water, bay leaves and bring to a boil.
• In the meanwhile, begin to wash, peel and cut vegetables.
• Once broth is boiling, start skimming the foam with mesh strainer until clear. Reduce heat to low, add peppercorns, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
• In the meanwhile, preheat large skillet on medium heat and swirl 1 tbsp of oil to coat. Add onion and saute for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add carrots and saute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add tomato paste, stir until combined and turn off heat.
• Transfer sauteed veggies to a pot along with cabbage, potatoes, tomato paste, salt and pepper. Cover, bring to a boil and cook on low heat for 15 minutes.
• Turn off heat, remove beef bones on a cutting board and let cool for 5 minutes.
• Discard bay leaves and peppercorns. Add vinegar, dill and stir.
• Remove meat from bones, chop (I usually use fork and a knife) and return to the pot (along with bones, if you wish). Adjust any seasonings to taste, if necessary.
• Serve hot with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, if you wish. More dill in bowls is great too.
• Refrigerate cabbage soup in a large pot you cooked it in for up to 5 days.
• Reheat by simmering on low in small pot only amount you are planning to consume.
• Freeze in an airtight glass container for up to 3 months. Then thaw on a counter overnight and reheat.
