Sour cabbage tomato paste soup is a homestyle soup made by simmering tangy cabbage with tomato paste in water or stock. Recipes vary, and cooks may add onion and seasonings; the defining combination is the cabbage’s sourness and the paste’s rich, savoury flavour.
Served hot, it makes a simple lunch or supper, particularly on a chilly day. Bread is an easy accompaniment, while beans or another protein can make it more substantial. At 28 calories per 100 g, it is a light soup, with some fibre; its sharp, savoury flavour also means it needs little embellishment at the table.
