Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Lb. Italian sausage links
2 C. dry white wine
2 Cloves garlic -- minced
1 Medium onion -- finely chopped
5 C. chopped cabbage
1 Can tomatoes -- (28 oz.) cut up
1 C. water
1 Can green chili -- (4 oz.)
peppers -- rinsed, seeded and
chopped

Using the tines of a fork, prick the sausage casing
several times. Cut the sausage in 1-inch pieces; place in a
large mixing bowl.
For marinade, add wine and garlic to sausage pieces.
Marinate for 30 minutes. Drain sausage pieces, reserving
marinade.
In a Dutch oven or large kettle, cook the sausage and
onion until the meat is brown and onion is tender. Drain off
fat. Add reserved marinade. Bring to boiling; reduce heat.
Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Stir in cabbage, undrained
tomatoes, water and green chili peppers. Simmer, covered, for
20 minutes more, stirring occasionally. (Cool and refrigerate
soup at this point, if planning to reheat.) Makes 8 to 10
servings.
To reheat chilled soup, place it in a Dutch oven or
large kettle; cover and bring to boiling (about 30 minutes),
stirring occasionally. If the soup is too thick, add an
additional 1 cup water and heat through.
