Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. You can cook shchi using fresh cabbage or fermented cabbage—the taste will be drastically different. I cook it with fresh cabbage in summer and with sour cabbage in winter. So, first prepare a broth using water and half a chicken, and we'll use this broth to cook the shchi.

Step 8
Make cuts in the bread rolls to remove all the crumb. Place them in the oven for 15 minutes at 170 degrees to dry out. This procedure will prevent the rolls from getting soggy immediately. Pour the meat soup into the bread bowls and serve.
