Method
 

How to Make Cabbage Soup
  1. Warm the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Allow it to shimmer slightly, then add the diced onions. Sauté the onions for about 5 minutes, or until they turn translucent and fragrant.
  2. Toss in the sliced carrots and minced garlic. Cook this aromatic mixture for another 3-4 minutes, letting the flavors mingle and deepen as the carrots begin to soften.
  3. Stir in the chopped green cabbage, ensuring it's well coated with the onion-garlic mixture. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring everything to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper to the pot. Simmer the soup uncovered for about 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet retain their enticing crunch.
  5. Before serving, taste your cabbage soup and adjust the seasoning if needed.
