Aberaeron Broth

(Cawl Aberaeron, Aberayron Broth)

Aberaeron broth is a traditional soup originating from Wales. It's usually made with a combination of bacon, beef, white cabbage, potatoes, leeks, carrots, parsnips, oatmeal, and seasonings. The cabbage is washed and shredded, and all the other vegetables are peeled and cut.


The bacon and beef are diced. The meat and the vegetables (except the leeks) are placed in a large saucepan, covered with water, seasoned, and slowly simmered for about two hours. The leeks are added near the end of cooking, and the soup is then served while still hot.
