Blah..made exactly as directed..AND let it sit few a few days bc a lot of reviews stated thats what really made this soup good...just not a winner. I was expectling and more "sweet and sour" flavor and it just didnt hit the mark even after making it more sweet and sour myself.

The recipe was a dud! I will not make it again. The sour cream helped, but the dill was overpowering. I love Rachael, but this wasn't for me.

Very good...I made the following changes as I never follow a recipe exactly. I used pork cubes, no honey, no stock, no beans. The broth was sweet enough w/o adding honey. I added left over pickled red cabbage and homemade carrot relish. Instead of sour cream, I topped it with greek yogurt..a must and don't forget the dark rye bread! Both my husband and I enjoyed this soup on a cold winter night in Colorado. I will definitely make this again!

After making this recipe as written the first time and enjoying the flavors I made a few changes the second time, the reaon I only gave 4 stars. I added some leftover bacon fat to the oil to cook the vegetables and some red pepper flakes for a nice bit of heat. The hashbrowns seemed odd to me so I replaced them with diced potatoes that I started cooking as the stock/cider mixture was heating up. I only use cider if I happen to have it, otherwise I just use a small bottle of Simply Apple apple juice, but I do really love the flavor either add. I grated the garlic into the cold broth/cider mixture and let it infuse the liquid. Omitting the honey cut down on the sweetness and I added toasted caraway seeds. Other than that I took my time chopping the vegetables, so it did take considerably longer than 30 minutes; worth the extra time! I love this soup!

Loved it! What a refreshing and hearty soup! Great for a cold winter day! We used keilbasa instead of ham. The sourcream is a must! We amde it with the sammies too, and they were fantastic!

Super delish, super easy, and very good flavors! I used sweet italian sausage instead of ham steak, and I added extra pepper to kick up a notch, but everything else I did exactly as the recipe said. I will definitely be making this often.

This was really delicious and incredibly easy. The broth ended up being a little too sweet for our liking, so we will only use the honey and the chicken broth next time. It was also incredibly hearty and talk about feeding 5 people heaping servings for cheap! Overall, amazing!

I disagree with Tammy completely!! I found this recipie full of flavor - especially for someone who had never had cabbage soup and doesn't necessarily like Saurcraut. I added a bit more honey and used Apple Juice instead of Cider - trying to stay away from sugar, I also added 2 cans of beans which was great - but this was simply delicious and filling and wonderful!! Way to go Rachael! :
