Make sure to drain the sauerkraut well before adding it to the soup to prevent it from becoming too watery. For a richer flavor, use homemade beef stock. However, store-bought is perfectly acceptable. If you don't have seasoned salt, you can substitute with a mixture of salt, celery seed, and onion powder. Adjust the amount of black pepper and seasoned salt to your personal preference. For an extra touch, you can toast the rye croutons in the oven before adding them to the soup.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large stockpot over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion, celery, and red bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 6-8 minutes.
02
StepAdd minced garlic, tarragon, and caraway seeds to the pot. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
03
StepSlowly stir in all-purpose flour, ensuring there are no lumps. Cook, stirring constantly, over low heat until the flour is lightly browned, about 10 minutes. This creates a flavorful roux.

StepBring the soup to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until the soup is heated through and slightly thickened, about 30 minutes.
06
StepStir in 2 cups of shredded Swiss cheese until completely melted and incorporated into the soup.
07
StepLadle the creamy Reuben soup into individual bowls. Top with rye croutons and the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded Swiss cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy!
