Instructions:

Remove the outer hard leaves from the cabbage, discard the stalk and cut the cabbage into tender strips. Steep in boiling hot salted water for 5 minutes. Scrape the carrots and cut them into thin slices. Clean the celery, removing all the hard outer ribs. Then cut into short pieces. Clean the leek and cut it into thick slices. Remove the skin from the onion and dice it. Cut the lettuce heart into tender strips. Remove the peel from the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. In a saucepan, heat the butter, add the vegetables and cook for half an hour at low temperature with the lid closed. Stir from time to time. Then pour in the boiling clear soup. Simmer for another half hour at low heat. Season with salt and pepper. About 20 minutes before the end of the cooking time, sprinkle the long grain rice into the soup. Serve with Parmesan cheese.

Toast until golden brown and distribute evenly in the soup cups. At the table, pour the hot soup over the rice. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
