Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 ounces bacon, chopped
3 medium leeks, white and light-green parts only, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds, then washed well and drained (1 cup)
4 pounds pork spareribs, cut crosswise into 4 sections
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch rounds (1 1/2 cups)
1/2 small Savoy cabbage, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces (3 cups)
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced lengthwise (1 cup)
2 cups sauerkraut, drained
2 tablespoons caraway seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Fresh dill, sour cream, seeded rye bread, and salted butter, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium-high heat, cook bacon and leeks, stirring occasionally, until most of fat is rendered and leeks have softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add spareribs and 5 quarts water to pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and boil, skimming foam and impurities from surface, until meat is tender and falls from bones easily, 50 to 55 minutes. Transfer ribs to a plate; let cool slightly. (For a clear soup, strain broth through a sieve lined with cheesecloth and return to pot before adding vegetables.) Add carrots, cabbage, potatoes, onion, sauerkraut, caraway seeds, and bacon mixture. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until vegetables are tender and easily pierced with a knife, 22 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, slice ribs between bones and pull meat from bones. Cut off and discard any tough cartilage. Slice or tear meat into bite-size pieces. Stir meat into pot and simmer a few minutes to warm through. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with dill, sour cream, bread, and butter.

PORK CHOP AND CABBAGE SOUP



Pork Chop and Cabbage Soup image

This is a quick and nutritious recipe I created, or think I did, which my companion and I enjoy. Naturally, you may adjust any ingredients as you wish. I had to approximate the ketchup as I didn't want that to overwhelm this recipe. Due to my being a Southerner, I cook corn bread with this. I prefer pure olive oil to extra-virgin as it's not as fruity. Any oil will do.
