Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds red beets with greens, beets peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice, greens coarsely chopped
1 pound meaty beef shin bones
1 pound green cabbage, shredded
1 14-ounce can chopped tomatoes with their juice
1 large onion, quartered and thinly sliced
1 bay leaf
Salt to taste
1 pound large waxy potatoes, quartered
Freshly ground white pepper to taste
Balsamic vinegar to taste, for drizzling

Steps:

  • In a soup pot, combine beets (not greens), bones, cabbage, tomatoes, onion, 8 cups water, bay leaf and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, put potatoes in a medium saucepan of water. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a cutting board. Add chopped greens to boiling water and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water. Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch dice.
  • Discard bay leaf. Remove bones, remove meat from bones, chop meat and return meat to soup. Taste and add salt if needed. Ladle soup into bowls and season with white pepper. Top with potatoes and greens, and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

I've never been a big fan of beets, but this recipe has changed my mind. The beets are roasted first, which brings out their sweetness and mellows their earthy flavor.
