    "Borscht Soup Cooking and Serving Tips When slow-cooking borscht, in order to prevent the cabbage from getting mushy, add it 30 minutes before serving because it cooks faster than the other ingredients. With slow-cooked beef stew meat and onion sautéed in a roux, the borscht brings a wonderful smell to your house during cooking. Serve it with your favorite bread or just enjoy it alone. This recipe calls for beef bone broth instead of beef broth. This adds an instant boost of nutrition because unlike regular stock or broth, bone broth is rich in collagen, a protein known for supporting bone, joint, skin, and gut health. If you’re vegetarian, feel free to substitute fresh beet for the beef and vegetable stock or vegetable broth for the beef bone broth."

    I don't see cabbage in the ingredients. How much and how do you prepare the cabbage?
