This recipe is a simple twist on the classic French home-style dish, Pot-au-Feu. It draws out the maximum natural flavors of the ingredients, with chunky vegetables being a highlight. It's easy to prepare, from the initial steps to the cooking, and the deeply savory soup is exquisite. Feel free to add mustard or cheese to your liking and give it a try.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • 1/2 Cabbage (500g)
  • 1 Onion
  • 100g Bacon

Seasonings

  • [A] 700ml Water
  • [A] 100ml White Wine
  • [A] 1/2 tsp Salt
  • [A] 2 tsp Consommé (1 cube)
  • [A] 1 clove Garlic

Steps

  1. In a pot, combine 700ml Water, 100ml White Wine, 1/2 tsp Salt, and 2 tsp Consommé (1 cube). Grate in 1 clove Garlic and mix to create the soup base.
  2. Cut the onion into 4 wedges without removing the core.
  3. Cut 1/2 Cabbage (500g) into quarter-sized pieces. Make a diagonal cut into the core to remove it.
  4. Rinse the cabbage quickly under running water and drain thoroughly.
  5. Cut the cabbage into eighth-sized pieces, then cut in half horizontally to create easy-to-eat portions.
  6. Cut the 100g Bacon into bite-sized pieces.
  7. Add a generous amount of olive oil to a pot and heat over low heat. Once the oil is warm, arrange the bacon slices.
  8. Sear the bacon until it has a nice color, rendering its flavorful fat. Turn off the heat once browned.
  9. Move the bacon to the side of the pot and arrange the cabbage pieces in the empty space, with the core side down.
  10. Place the onion wedges on top of the cabbage, and arrange the bacon on top for color.
  11. Pour the prepared soup base into the pot and bring to a boil over medium heat until cooked through.
  12. Once everything is submerged and softened in the soup, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
  13. After 30 minutes, turn off the heat once.
  14. Let it rest for 10 minutes with the lid on. This resting period allows the flavors to meld deeply into the ingredients, resulting in a richer soup.
  15. After 10 minutes, open the lid and gently stir everything together while reheating.
  16. Once the soup is hot, taste and adjust seasoning.
  17. Serve in bowls. Optionally, top with Parmesan cheese, black pepper, whole grain mustard, or rock salt for added flavor.
