South Bohemian cabbage soup (Zelňačka) from My Bohemian Kitchen: A Nostalgic Guide to Modern Czech Cooking (page 62) by Evie Harbury

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute lard for unsalted butter.

    This was delicious. I made some slight changes by just cooking everything in one pot instead of cooking the potatoes separately. Flavors were good. Will make again.

    As the recipe says this is great for winter. Delicious and hearty flavours. Make sure to use a good stock for the soup.
