Savor the robust taste of country ham in this comforting and easy ham and cabbage soup - a warming winter dish.
Ingredients:
  • 1 medium yellow onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces country ham slices, diced
  • 1 (32 fluid ounce) container chicken stock
  • 1.5 pounds red potatoes with skin, cut into small cubes
  • 0.5 large head Savoy cabbage, cored and cut into 1-inch squares
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch, or more to taste
  • 2 teaspoons water
Instructions:
  • In a large, heavy-bottomed pan, sauté onions in oil until soft, approximately 5 minutes. Add country ham and cook for 3-4 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and add potatoes, ensuring they are fully submerged. Toss in fresh thyme sprigs and bring to a boil.
  • Simmer gently until the potatoes are tender, approximately 20 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs. Stir in cabbage until well combined, ensuring the liquid no longer covers the mixture. Return to a boil.
  • Simmer covered until cabbage is tender, about 5 to 10 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if desired.
  • Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl, then slowly pour into the soup. Stir until the soup is as thick as heavy cream or to your liking; make sure it's not too thick. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
