Sour cabbage soup
Description
The soup is simple and quick to prepare. You can cook the soup in water or meat broth (pork, beef, or chicken). It's best to use meat with bones for a richer broth. Pre-cook the sauerkraut in a pan before adding it to the soup. Use millet or barley grains, pre-boiling them beforehand.
