1
Prep the vegetables
Cutting Board
Chef’s knife
Vegetable peeler

Prep the vegetables: peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes and rutabaga, slice the carrots, chop the cabbage, and rinse the sliced leeks well to remove grit.

Use a stable cutting board when cutting firm rutabaga, and keep the knife blade angled away from your fingers.

1 1/2 pounds yukon gold potatoes
1 pound rutabaga
12 ounces carrots
8 ounces green cabbage
2 Each leeks
2
Soften the leeks
Wooden spoon
Large Dutch oven

Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat; add the leeks and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until softened but not browned.

2 tablespoons canola oil
2 Each leeks
3
Coat the vegetables
Measuring Spoons
Wooden spoon
Large Dutch oven

Add the Yukon Gold potatoes, rutabaga, carrots, dried thyme, 1 teaspoon of the fine sea salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper; stir to coat the vegetables and cook for 2 minutes.

1 1/2 pounds yukon gold potatoes
1 pound rutabaga
12 ounces carrots
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
4
Add broth and simmer
Measuring Cups
Wooden spoon
Large Dutch oven

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a steady simmer over medium-high heat, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any flavorful bits.

Bring the broth to a steady simmer gradually to reduce the chance of hot liquid splashing.

8 cups vegetable broth
5
Cook until nearly tender
Large Dutch oven

Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover partly, and simmer for 25 minutes, until the rutabaga and potatoes are nearly tender.

6
Add cabbage and finish simmering
Wooden spoon
Large Dutch oven

Stir in the chopped green cabbage and continue simmering uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes, until all vegetables are fork-tender and the broth is savory.

Keep the stew at a gentle simmer while uncovered to help prevent hot broth from splashing.

8 ounces green cabbage
7
Season and serve
Ladle

Taste and adjust seasoning with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper as needed, then serve the stew hot in bowls.

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
