A creamy, tangy soup inspired by the classic Reuben sandwich, perfect for chilly nights and cozy gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups diced or shredded cooked corned beef
  • 1 cup drained sauerkraut
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 pinch caraway seeds
  • 2 cups peeled and diced potatoes (optional)
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients: dice the onion, peel and cube the potatoes, drain the sauerkraut, and shred the Swiss cheese.
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of flour, stirring constantly to create a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  4. Gradually pour in 4 cups of chicken broth, whisking to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add diced potatoes (if using) and cook for 10-15 minutes until tender.
  6. Stir in sauerkraut, corned beef, and caraway seeds. Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup of heavy cream and shredded Swiss cheese. Stir until cheese is melted and soup is creamy.
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep soup on low heat until ready to serve.

Notes

[‘Don’t rush the roux to ensure a smooth texture.’, ‘Drain the sauerkraut well to avoid overpowering the soup.’, ‘Use freshly shredded cheese for better melting.’, ‘Simmer gently to prevent cream from curdling.’, ‘Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.’]
