Potato, Sausage and Cabbage Soup
"Italian sausage or regular pork sausage also work well with this soup. Serve hot with chunks of good crusty bread, if desired"
- 2 pounds of fresh sausage, casings removed
- 3-3/4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1-7/8 onion, chopped
- 3-3/4 cups water
- 1-7/8 medium heads cabbage, chopped
- 5-2/3 cups milk, divided
- 1/3 cup and 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 pound Swiss cheese, diced
Directions1 In a large skillet over medium high heat, sauté the sausage for 10 minutes, or until browned and crumbled. Drain well and discard the fat.
2 In a large pot over high heat, combine the browned sausage, potatoes, onion 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.)
3 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.)
4 When the mixture in the pot thickens, add the cheese and stir off and on until the cheese has melted.
