The ingredients needed to make Simple Cabbage & Bean Soup with Pork:
- Get 1 pound pork, cut into 1/2" cubes (I like shoulder, but you can use whatever cut you like.)
- Take 1/2 Tablespoon oil
- Make ready 1 small onion, diced
- Make ready 2 large carrots, peeled and cut into roughly 1/2"pieces (I find the peel can sometimes impart a slightly bitter flavor.)
- Make ready 1 large stem of celery, diced
- Make ready 4 cloves garlic, crushed
- Make ready 1 Tablespoon tomato paste + 1 teaspoon sugar OR 2 Tablespoons ketchup if you don't have tomato paste
- Make ready 1 bay leaf
- Take 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Make ready 8 cups liquid (any mixture of water and unsalted stock you like)
- Take 2.5 teaspoons kosher salt to start
- Take 1 Tablespoon apple cider or distilled white vinegar
- Make ready 6 cups chopped cabbage (roughly 1"pieces), about half a large head
- Make ready 2 (15 oz.) cans (OR one 28 oz. can) unsalted white beans, drained. (I used Northern. You can also use Navy or Cannellini.)
Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the drippings in the skillet. Chop the cabbage into roughly bite-size pieces. Melt the butter in a large saucepan or sauté pan over medium-high heat. Cover and reduce the heat to medium-low.
Steps to make Simple Cabbage & Bean Soup with Pork:
- In a large pot or stockpot, bring the oil up to medium high heat and brown the pork.
- Add onions, carrots, celery, and garlic and saute for 2 or 3 minutes until the onions just start to turn translucent.
- Add bay leaf, thyme, and tomato paste (or ketchup), and give everything few good stirs. (This will give the tomato a chance to caramelize a bit.)
- Add liquid, salt, vinegar, and cabbage, give everything another few good stirs, turn the heat down to medium, and cook, covered, for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Turn heat down to medium low, add beans, stir them in, and cook, covered, for another 20 to 25 minutes. Adjust seasoning before the last 5 minutes of this cooktime to give all flavors a chance to meld.
- Enjoy! :)

I love this southern cabbage recipe because it creates tender, yet slightly firm cabbage that is full of flavor, even the juice left in the pot taste good!
