Sauerkraut and mushrooms are a very lively combination, capable of making you not notice the absence of a strong meat broth in the cabbage soup. If this is not enough, on days of voluntary asceticism you can add a spoonful of soy sour cream to the soup. However, it makes sense to cook sour cabbage soup more often for those who have passed by the fast: although by spring the sauerkraut becomes not as crisp and elastic as it was in the fall, it still contains reserves of vitamin C, and during the period of spring colds you should not deny yourself such a vitamin boost.
