2 tbsp butter
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp flour
4 cups beef or chicken broth
2 cups sauerkraut, drained
1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
2 cups cooked corned beef, diced
4 slices rye bread, cubed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp caraway seeds (optional)
Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss rye bread cubes with olive oil and caraway seeds, bake 10–12 minutes until crisp.
In a pot, melt butter. Sauté onion and garlic 5 minutes.
Stir in flour, cook 1 minute. Slowly whisk in broth.
Add sauerkraut and simmer 15 minutes. Stir in cream.
Stir in cheese until melted, then add corned beef. Simmer 5–10 minutes.
Serve hot, topped with rye croutons.
Don’t boil after adding cheese.
For a thinner soup, add more broth.
Leftovers reheat best on stovetop.
