7 c. water
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large carrot, sliced
2 large celery stalks, sliced
1 medium potato, scrubbed and diced
1 c white cabbage, coarsely shredded
2 t. Italian herb mix
Place all ingredients in a large soup pot. Bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer gently, covered, over low heat for 40 - 45 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Strain.
This can be used in place of water in most any vegetable soup to give added flavor without salt, and it’s a great way to use up limp vegetables.
Makes 6 cups.
