Boil a chicken broth with a whole onion and carrot. Strain it and pour into the pot in which you plan to cook the soup. Add rinsed sauerkraut to the broth. If the sauerkraut was fermented with carrots, do not add extra carrots to the soup.

At the end of cooking, add tomato paste to the soup. Season with pepper and salt. Keep in mind that you've already added sauerkraut, so don't overdo the salt. Simmer the soup for a few more minutes, covered, then add finely chopped green onions to the pot.
