Purple Soup, Purple Soup

Hi all,

I know you missed us... So we're back! Back with an amazingly colourful suggestion for your winter meals.
If you love veggies and soups and your favourite colour is purple, then this is the advice you've been waiting for.
I am a big fan of minestrone, as it'a great tummy-soothing food after a long busy day and I alway try to add some cabbage to it. I recently bought red cabbage to see if I can cook it and when I found myself chopping up vegetables for my next minestrone I just added a good amount of red cabbage to the mix and... Behold! As it cooked, everything else took on a purple colour, especially potatoes and, later on, the pasta I added. In terms of lavours, red cabbage tastes like the white one: very delicate and it mixes perfectly with other traditional minestrone veggies. My personal suggestion is to have borlotti beans in the mix as they complete wonderfully the sweet cabbage flavour.



So, red cabbage can be more than a purple side, enjoy!
