How to make cabbage soup

Cabbage soup or kapustniak has always been on a par with traditional Ukrainian borsch. No wonder these two dishes are often recalled together. Kapusniak is just as much a favorite on the table, and its main ingredient, sauerkraut, makes it even more unique.

Culinary expert Kostiantyn Hrubych and hostess Liudmyla Diachenko shared a recipe for Poltava cabbage soup on YouTube.
