Provided by CaliforniaJan

Categories     Pork

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

16 ounces bratwursts, casings removed
2 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 onion, chopped
1 cup beer
1 cup water or 1 cup stock
1 medium head cabbage, chopped
3 cups milk, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 ounces swiss cheese, diced

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium high heat, saute the sausage for 10 minutes, or until browned and crumbled. Drain well and discard the fat.
  • In a large pot over high heat, combine the browned sausage, potatoes, onion, beer and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Add the cabbage, return to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for another 20 minutes. Add 2 1/2 cups of the milk and heat slowly to just under a boil. (Note: Don't try to do this too fast, or the milk will burn on the bottom of the pot.).
  • In a separate small bowl, mix the flour with the remaining milk, and add to the pot slowly, stirring constantly, so that the flour does not clump. (Note: Make sure you get out all the lumps because they will not cook out on their own.).
  • When the mixture in the pot thickens, add the spices and cheese and stir off and on until the cheese has melted.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Bratwurst: For optimal flavor, select a flavorful bratwurst variety like German or Polish bratwurst.
  • Brown the Bratwurst: Browning the bratwurst before adding it to the soup enhances its taste and adds depth of flavor.
  • Enhance the Broth: Use a combination of chicken broth and beer to create a flavorful base for the soup. The beer adds a subtle hoppy flavor that complements the bratwurst.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables, especially the onions and garlic, brings out their sweetness and adds a golden-brown color.
  • Add Hearty Potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are great choices as they hold their shape well in the soup.
  • Cabbage for Texture: The cabbage adds a delightful crunch and texture to the soup. Use green or Savoy cabbage for variation.
  • Season Wisely: Use a combination of herbs and spices like thyme, paprika, and caraway seeds to enhance the soup's flavor.
  • Simmer for Flavor: Allow the soup to simmer for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld and develop.

This hearty and flavorful Bratwurst, Potato, and Cabbage Soup is a perfect meal to warm you up on a cold day.
