You can use from 1-3 pounds of sausage depending on your tastes. I love dipping buttered rye bread in the soup - must be my Polish genes.

This was delicious! I only had one pound of kielbasa so that's what I used (beef kielbasa). Also used less celery as 2 cups seemed like a lot; used a small head of cabbage so I probably used more. It is wonderful! Definitely a keeper! Thank you.

    As I was putting together the ingredients for this soup I was afraid it was going to be bland. Boy was I wrong! It was excellent. I made it specifically with an elderly polish neighbor in mind, he and his wife loved it. I made it with 3lbs of kielbasa added an extra cup of broth, 1 more tablespoon of vinegar and a little more cabbage. Makes me wish I was polish and could have grown up on this kind of food.

    What good soup! My Polish genes were also very happy to be eating this with the buttered rye bread. This Memorial Day weekend was cold rainy and crappy so I decided I needed soup for comfort. I used 2 pounds of smoked polish sausage and did add more cabbage. I had a tremendously flavored thick and hearty soup. And sprinkling it with a touch of dill is pure genius! This will become a staple in our household. Thanks Lorac!
