This is a tasty vegetable soup that's simple to make, very hearty, and delicious.

=== Ingredients ===

* 1 head of cabbage, shredded
* 3 potatoes, chopped
* 2 onions, diced
* 1 can diced tomatoes
* 2 radishes, diced
* 2 leeks (white part only), chopped
* 1 carrot, chopped
* 2 quarts beef broth
* 4 garlic cloves, diced or crushed
* 2 bay leaves
* 2 tbsp olive oil
* 1 tsp black peppercorns
* 1 tsp caraway seed
* Salt, to taste (1-3 tsp)

=== For serving: ===

* 1 tsp fresh dill, chopped
* 1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped
* 2 tbsp sour cream or creme fraiche

== Preparation ==

# Saute the onion, radish, leek, carrot, and garlic for 10 minutes, or until soft.
# Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for an hour.
# Salt to taste. If you used low sodium broth, you might have to add up to a tablespoon of kosher salt. Best to taste and test to preference.
# For best results, cool and refrigerate overnight to meld the flavors. It's still good the first day.

=== Serving ===

* Serve bowl with fresh dill, parsley, and sour cream mixed into each bowl.

=== Notes ===

* The salt makes a big difference in the flavor.
* The cabbage won't look like it's going to fit, but once it cooks down a little, it'll be fine.
* You could substitute veggie broth for vegetarians.
* You could also add meat to make it more filling.
* You can add demi-glace to the broth to make it even more rich if you want.
