For the preparation of cabbage soup, I used cabbage fermented in an oak barrel, according to this recipe .

How much water should I take to make broth? The amount depends entirely on your taste preferences. I used a little less than 2 liters for the specified number of products. Stewed cabbage soup in two pots each with a volume of 1-1.5 liters. 

At the end of cooking, try the soup with salt and add salt if necessary. I usually don't add salt, as sauerkraut is salty by itself.

Bon appetit!

Important! Regardless of whether the amount of water for soup is indicated in the recipe or not, it is best to focus on your own preferences (thick or more liquid soup you like), as well as on the size of your pan and the products taken for cooking. Do not forget that the author has his own view on the amount of meat, potatoes, cereals and other ingredients in the soup, which may not coincide with yours.  In practice, this means that if you are cooking for the first time, you should not cook a whole pot at once. Make a soup for tasting - for one or two people. To do this, reduce the amount of all ingredients according to the recipe to 1-2 servings, and take the amount of water from the calculation: from one glass per serving - if the soup is very thick, to 1.5-2 glasses - if more liquid. Do not forget to take into account that part of the liquid will boil off during the cooking process. After tasting a small portion of soup, you can adjust both the amount of liquid and the proportions of ingredients to your taste. In the future, like most experienced housewives, you will be able to pour water for soup and lay the ingredients “by eye".

For this recipe, it does not matter which part of the carcass to choose, since it will still become soft during cooking.

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use the useful information about the features of the ovens !
