Ok, here's the soup recipe. The Russian translation is apparently S'chee,
at least according to the cookbook.


Shredded-Cabbage Soup

2 med onions, thinly sliced
3 T bacon fat, margarine, or butter
2 10.5 oz cans condensed beef broth
2 soup cans water
5 cups coarsely shredded cabbage
2 carrots, sliced
2 med potatoes, cubed
1 stalk celery, with leaves, sliced
2 tomatoes, chopped (I think Mom uses a can of chopped)
1 tsp salt
pepper to taste

sour cream and dill for garnish


Saute onions in fat until tender. Add the beef broth, water, cabbage,
carrots, potatoes, and celery. Bring to boiling, cover and simmer until
vegetables are tender. Add tomatoes, salt, and pepper, simmer uncovered
about 10 minutes. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream topped with a sprig
of dill.
