For a richer flavor, consider using homemade vegetable broth. A splash of apple cider vinegar at the end can brighten the flavors. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added flair.
Embrace the luck of the Irish with this hearty and comforting soup, a brilliant transformation of leftover corned beef into a culinary pot of gold. The malty depth from the beer, combined with the subtle tang of mustard, elevates this simple soup to a St. Patrick's Day celebration in a bowl.
In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)
Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the celery, carrots, and minced garlic, and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly tender.
Stir in the chopped red potatoes, vegetable broth, beer, and coarse-grain mustard. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the shredded cabbage and cook for 5 minutes, until it is wilted but still retains some crispness.
Turn off the heat and gently stir in the chopped cooked corned beef until heated through. Avoid over-stirring to prevent the corned beef from shredding too much.
Ladle the soup into bowls and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
