Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • ~3 liters water
  • 4 medium potatoes peeled and cubbed
  • 1 medium white onion chopped into small pieces
  • ¼ medium cabbage chopped into small pieces
  • 4-5 Tbsp dried vegetables mix - see how I prepared it above
  • 250 ml vegan cooking cream rice or soy
  • 500 ml rice milk unsweetened
  • vinegar to taste - some people prefer sour soups, some prefer them sweeter, so you can make it as you please. Instead of vinegar, I sometimes use the spiced vinegar from pickles. I never throw it away and you can try it too!
  • 4 bay leaves
  • a bunch of fresh dill chopped
  • a few peppercorns or ground pepper
  • salt or miso paste to taste. I started using miso paste instead of salt in various recipes. It gives a hint of salt and a kick of probiotics and flavor

Instructions
 

  • Add ~3L water in a pot to boil. Add the cubed potatoes, cabbage, and onion into the water. Let them boil for 15 minutes.
  • Add the dried vegetable mix, bay leaves, and pepper. Let them boil until the potatoes are tender for approx. 10 minutes.
  • Turn the heat off and add the chopped dill, rice milk, and vegan cream. Mix.
  • Now is the time to season your soup to taste. Add salt or miso paste, mix, and taste. Then add the vinegar. When I use the pickled vinegar with spices I add around 1/2 jar to one batch of soup because it's usually sweeter. If you use normal vinegar which is stronger, add just a little bit at a time until you reach the desired taste.
