Canned Cabbage Shchi Base for the Winter

Putting up a shchi base is well worth it! Why buy soup vegetables at the store — where you've no idea how they were treated or where they were grown — when you can put up jars from your own garden (in my case, my grandmother's) and enjoy them all winter? I even have enough left for spring. This batch made two jars for me: one quart and one about 10 oz.

  • Wash the cabbage and shred it. Peel and wash the onion and carrot. Cut the onion into half-moons and grate the carrot on the coarse holes of a box grater. Wash the tomatoes and cut them into wedges. Seed the bell pepper, remove the stem, wash it, and cut it into rings.
  • Put all the vegetables in a pot, add the salt and sugar, pour in the water and oil, add the bay leaves, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring now and then.
  • Meanwhile, wash the dill and parsley and peel the garlic. Finely chop the herbs and press the garlic through a garlic press. Add them to the mix 5 minutes before the end of cooking, pour in the vinegar, and stir gently.
  • Pack into dry, sterile jars, seal with sterile metal lids, turn them upside down, and wrap in a warm blanket. Leave until completely cool (about a day), then move them to their storage spot.
  • Don't worry that the vegetables aren't soft — they're meant to stay crisp, and it all keeps beautifully even at room temperature.
  • Enjoy your shchi!
