Daily cabbage soup becomes "daily cabbage soup" after it has been left in the cold for 24 hours. Thanks to this simple trick, the broth will gain flavor and density. It is best to leave the cabbage soup to rest in the cold: if the soup freezes and then thaws, the cabbage in it will become very soft.

The simple taste of fresh boiled cabbage, which, unlike sauerkraut, lacks acidity and intrigue, is noticeably enriched by the broth: its recipe includes beef, onions, fresh tomatoes and three hours of cooking over low heat . Otherwise, this is an everyday, non-committal soup. We strongly recommend preparing fresh cabbage shchi at least a couple of hours before serving and letting it steep, wrapping the pan in a blanket: the interpenetration of flavors will make the soup even richer, and will also add softness to the cabbage, and it will not crunch on the teeth, which is not welcome in classic shchi.
