Brisket and Cabbage Soup
December 19, 2014
First cut the brisket and sear it on all sides.
Once it is nice and brown, add some beef stock and tuck it in the oven.
Start cooking the veggies once the meat has been in the oven about an hour.
Cabbage goes in a little later.
Once all the veggies have a little bit of color, the thyme goes in next, with some coriander, and more beef stock.
The brisket is looking nice when it comes out of the oven. Toss it into the soup for another hour or so.
Then pull it out of the soup and break it up.
Yum lookin good! Add some potato flakes to thicken it up a little.
Yea, this soup was super warming and comforting after a long cold day.
A little more thyme on top was a nice touch.
Such a good soup.
Brisket made this much better than just any other braised beef because it has such a unique texture and flavor.
