This was the best cabbage soup I've ever tasted. Hubby raved about it! I used fresh tomatoes. I omitted the flour b/c I like thinner soups, added 2 pressed cloves of garlic in the sauteing onion phase, used far less caraway seed but added some fresh thyme, and cooked it for longer (till cabbage was nice and tender). I served with some freshly grated Romano cheese on top. It was very tasty!

Very easy to make. I forgot to add the tomato juice so the cabbage taste was strong. All the kids liked this and most asked for seconds. The next day I added some tomato juice in with my soup and it tasted much butter. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup
