BEAN CABBAGE SOUP
I used to love my Italian grandmother's homemade minestrone. She was very particular about ingredients and where she bought them. Since I cook for only my husband and myself, I have simplified her recipe and cut down on the amounts. If I do say so myself, it's almost as good as Nonna Teresa's.

BAKED GIANT WHITE BEANS WITH CABBAGE
This slow-baked bean and cabbage dish is luxurious in both taste and texture. The limas become soft and pillowy after their long, slow simmer, while releasing some of their starch into the bean broth; the cabbage sweetens over time and almost melts into the velvety broth. Baked beans with cabbage traditionally contain a ham bone or some salt pork for flavor, but I get that rich umami flavor with Parmesan rinds.

VERY VERSATILE BAKED BEANS WITH CABBAGE
Any kind of medium or large dried bean works great here. Starchier varieties-like Italian gigante beans or cannellinis-will produce a creamier broth, and more vegetal ones-anything lima-like-will produce a thinner, slightly stew-ier broth. Black beans, kidneys, and pintos are all good. The onions and cabbage melt into the dish, providing a blanket of sweet richness. Embrace the versatility of this dish by playing around with the vegetable make-up by adding cubed winter squash, swapping chicories for the cabbage, using stock in place of the water, or stirring in blanched hearty greens or spinach at the end, for example. And serving options are similarly open-ended; see below for a few favorites.

Steps:
- Cover beans, smashed garlic, and bay leaves with about 1" water in a large pot. Add 3 Tbsp. oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and bring to a simmer. Cover pot partially and cook, adding more hot water as needed to keep beans covered, until beans are nearly done. Add large pinches of salt to taste toward end of cook time, which will vary depending on the bean; start tasting after about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and cover.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in a Dutch oven or large ovenproof dish over medium-high. Add onions, red pepper, and 1/2 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are reduced and beginning to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add sliced garlic and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes more. Add wine and cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Add cabbage and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, crushing with a wooden spoon or cutting with scissors into coarse chunks. Add beans and their liquid, then cover with water until beans and vegetables are just submerged; season to taste with salt. Bring to a boil, cover, and transfer to oven.
- Bake beans 1 hour and 20 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until liquid is slightly reduced and beans are completely tender, 15-30 minutes more. Let cool slightly to thicken, then stir in parsley just before serving.
- Serving Suggestions:
- Chili-Like: Serve just as you would your favorite chili, with shredded cheddar, sliced scallions, finely chopped jalapeño, dollops of sour cream or plain yogurt, and hot sauce.
- Baked With Eggs: Preheat oven to 400°F. Transfer beans to a shallow baking dish. Crack an egg into a ladle, then press ladle into beans and slide egg into the indentation. Repeat, adding as many eggs as you've got space and appetite for. Bake until eggs are set and beans are heated through and simmering along edges of pan, 25-30 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with chopped herbs; serve with toasted bread.
- Over Grains: Serve beans over piles of soft polenta. Brown rice, farro, and barley all work just as well.
- Over Toast: Spoon hot beans over thick slices of grilled or toasted bread (optional: rub it with a garlic clove). Top with a poached or fried egg and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with lightly dressed greens alongside.
- Tacos: Char corn tortillas over an open flame, stacking and wrapping in foil to keep warm. If broth is thin, serve beans with a slotted spoon, reserving broth for a separate meal. Serve with sliced avocado, shredded cabbage, crumbled feta, lime wedges, and cilantro sprigs, allowing everyone to assemble as they please.
- Do Ahead
- Baked beans can be made 3 days ahead; transfer to an airtight container and chill, or freeze up to 6 months. Beans can be cooked (before baking) 1 day ahead; let cool, cover, and chill.
Tips:
- Use a variety of cabbage. Green cabbage is the most common type used in soups, but you can also use red cabbage or savoy cabbage. Each type of cabbage has a slightly different flavor, so experiment to find your favorite.
- Don't overcook the cabbage. Cabbage should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked cabbage will be mushy and lose its flavor.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use store-bought broth or make your own.
- Add your favorite seasonings. Cabbage soup is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Some common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and thyme.
- Serve with your favorite toppings. Cabbage soup can be served with a variety of toppings, such as sour cream, yogurt, shredded cheese, or croutons.
Conclusion:
Cabbage soup is a delicious and healthy soup that can be enjoyed all year round. It's a great way to use up leftover cabbage and other vegetables, and it's also a good source of vitamins and minerals. With so many different ways to make cabbage soup, you're sure to find a recipe that you love.
