This sweetly tart, smoky tasting cabbage soup owes its flavor to caraway seed and smoked paprika. It’s worth noting that adding a little smoked paprika to soup is a great way to get that special...

1 tablespoon canola or grape seed oil
1 large yellow onion, halved and sliced
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 (14-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
1 pound cabbage, cored and shredded
4 cups stock or water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or white wine vinegar

Directions

Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until the onions are translucent. Stir in the caraway seeds and cook for 1 minute.
Add the whole tomatoes along with juice. Cook, breaking up the tomato with a wooden spoon, until the tomatoes start turning orangey in color, about 8-10 minutes.
Add shredded cabbage, stock or water, brown sugar, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer, covered for 1 hour.
Stir in lemon juice, then serve with crusty bread or a baked potato.

Chef Tips

Smoked paprika comes in sweet and hot versions. Buy sweet if you just want the flavor.
