Cabbage And Garlic Soup

Recipe Ingredients

3 tablespoons	45ml	Minced garlic
8 cups	1896ml	Chicken stock
1 cup	160g / 5.6oz	Long-grain white rice
6 cups	1422ml	Shredded savoy cabbage
1 teaspoon	5ml	Freshly-ground black pepper
		Salt - to taste
6		Croutons - see below
2 tablespoons	30ml	Minced parsley - for garnish

Recipe Instructions

In a medium saucepan combine garlic, 2 cups of the stock and rice. Bring to a boil over moderate heat; cover, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook 20 minutes.

Transfer to a blender or food processor, add 4 cups of the stock and blend, in batches if necessary. Return to saucepan; add remaining 2 cups stock and cabbage. Simmer 15 minutes over moderately-low heat. Add pepper and add salt if needed.

Place croutons in individual soup bowls and ladle soup over. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

Croutons: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place 6 slices (1/4-inch thick) day-old French bread on baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned (8 to 10 minutes). Croutons may be made up to 3 days ahead and stored in an airtight container. Before serving, crisp them for 5 minutes in a 350-degree oven.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
