Humble, yet exhilarating, this delicious borscht is a perfect winter soup - inexpensive, perfect with bread and butter, it will warm and comfort you. I have used this recipe for the past 45 years without changing a thing (!) because it is untweakable and too simple to goof up.
It is purely vegetarian, it is kosher, it can be gluten free, for those like some of my diners, who truly guard against wheat in any form, and it smells wonderful, is pro-biotic and probably is good for weight control - a necessity this time of year.
I first found this recipe in the New York Times Bread & Soup cookbook back in the '70s, and am delighted to share it with you. Enjoy - and enjoy the season!
Ingredientes
- 1 head of cabbage, all outer leaves removes, quartered, cored and nicely shredded
- 9 C vegetable (or chicken) stock (you can use 2 cartons of stock and add a cup of H2O)
- 1-1/2 C diced Spanish onion
- 1/2 C carrots, diced
- 1/4 C celery, diced
- 1-28oz can (or 2-15oz) of diced tomatoes ('no salt' is good)
- 8 ginger snaps (regular or gluten free work just fine)
- 2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp celery salt
- 1/2 tsp dried dill weed
- 1/4 C light brown sugar
- 1 tsp sour salt (aka: kosher salt - Rokeach is a good brand; also known as citric acid)
Direcciones

12 de Diciembre de 2012Hi Chef Amos, thank you for this post.1 reply
In Chicago there was a wonderful Kosher restaurant / deli, Ashkenaz, I believe one job requirement was being a Jewish Grandmother, I was lucky enough to be their handy "boy", even in my early teens I had the reputation of "he can fix anything" as well as busting suds, only loving and wonderful people worked there.
By the ingredients I can just taste it and I'm comfortable already, just like the first spoon of Ashkenaz Cabbage Soup, there were some differences, no ginger snaps and half the broth was chicken stock.
Chef Amos, I thank you so much, you have consistently taken me back to Grandmas kitchen and My Chicago of the 50's & 60's.
I would really like to post some of my and Grandma's recipes but when I call 'em up out of memory and look as yours, I just feel like I would be plagiarizing you, this goes totally against my grain as much as having the unmitigated chutzpah to call myself a chef, I haven't earned that privilege.
