Recipe Notes
Rice:
Add the
1/2 cup white rice uncooked
directly to the soup. There’s no need to prepare it separately.
Cabbage:
Chop the green cabbage into bite-sized pieces so it becomes tender and easy to eat as the soup simmers.
Don’t forget the bay leaf:
Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Soup consistency:
The rice will continue absorbing broth as the soup sits. Add a little beef broth when reheating if you prefer a thinner soup.
Make ahead:
This soup can be prepared in advance and reheated when you’re ready to serve.
Storage:
Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to
3–4 days
.
Freezing:
Once completely cooled, the soup can be stored in freezer-safe containers for about
2–3 months
.
