How to Make Polish Kraut Soup
- Chop 1 medium onion, 2 carrots (peeled or unpeeled), 2 celery stalks, and 1 lb kielbasa (sliced or diced).
- Gently squeeze excess liquid from 1 lb sauerkraut (do not rinse completely).
- In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Add 2 beef bouillon cubes (or 2 tbsp beef bouillon paste), 1 tsp caraway seeds, 1 tsp marjoram, 1 bay leaf, and ½ tsp black pepper.
- Add the chopped onions, carrots, celery, sauerkraut, and kielbasa to the boiling broth. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add 2 medium potatoes (scrubbed and quartered, skin on or off, your preference), and continue to simmer for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
- Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove bay leaf.
