Healthy, because
White cabbage is good for our intestines through dietary fibre, which stimulates sluggish digestion. It also contains the protein component methymethionone, which is able to protect our stomach and intestines from ulcers.
Even smarter
You can vary the vegetable soup according to your own taste. Some of the carrots can be replaced by green beans, for example. But also peas, pointed cabbage, savoy cabbage or leek go well with the hearty sausages. If you serve the soup as a main course, then a sourdough bread is particularly good with it.
