Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine beef stock, chicken stock, coarsely chopped onion, coarsely chopped celery, and coarsely chopped green pepper in a large saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the dissolved cornstarch and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes until the soup begins to thicken slightly.
  4. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the coarsely chopped corned beef, chopped Swiss cheese, and drained, rinsed sauerkraut until the cheese melts and ingredients are well blended.
  5. In a large double boiler or heavy-bottomed pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  6. Stir in the half-and-half until smooth and heated through.
  7. Pour the corned beef mixture into the half-and-half mixture and stir gently to combine.
  8. Heat the soup gently until warmed through, being careful not to let it boil to prevent the cheese from breaking.
  9. Ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.
