White cabbage soup
Description
The soup is simple and quick to prepare. Shchi is one of my favorite soups, especially considering that I'm not particularly fond of soups in general. And shchi made from sauerkraut tastes much better to me than those made from fresh cabbage. It's the pleasant tanginess that sauerkraut adds to the soup that I find so appealing. White shchi with sauerkraut, served with sour cream, fresh herbs, and bread, makes a delicious and satisfying meal. Serve with herbs and sour cream.
