Hello, foodies! Today I want to share with you one of my favorite discoveries from my travels: German cabbage soup, or as they call it in Germany, Kohlsuppe. Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Cabbage soup? Really? That sounds about as exciting as watching paint dry.” But trust me, this soup is anything but boring.
I first tried Kohlsuppe on a trip to Munich. It was a chilly day and I was wandering the streets, looking for something warm and comforting to eat. I stumbled upon a cozy little restaurant and decided to give it a try. The menu was full of traditional German dishes that I couldn’t pronounce, so I just pointed to the first thing that caught my eye: Kohlsuppe.
When the steaming bowl of soup arrived at my table, I was skeptical. It looked like a bowl of boiled cabbage. But one spoonful and I was hooked. The soup was rich and flavorful, with tender chunks of cabbage and other veggies swimming in a savory broth. It was the perfect meal for a chilly day.
Since then, I’ve been obsessed with Kohlsuppe. I’ve tried countless recipes and even created my own version (which I’ll share with you later in this post). But before we get to that, let me tell you a little more about this delicious soup.
Kohlsuppe is a traditional German dish that’s been around for centuries. It’s made with simple ingredients like cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and broth. But don’t let the simplicity fool you – this soup is packed with flavor.
One of the things I love about Kohlsuppe is how versatile it is. You can make it vegetarian or add meat for extra protein. You can also play around with the spices and herbs to make it your own. And best of all, it’s super easy to make.
So if you’re looking for a hearty and satisfying meal that’s perfect for chilly days, give Kohlsuppe a try. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
Stay tuned for my recipe and tips on how to make the perfect bowl of German cabbage soup. But first, let me tell you about the time I accidentally ordered a plate of liver dumplings instead of Kohlsuppe (hint: always double-check your pronunciation when ordering food in a foreign language). 😂
