Instruction:
In a large pot place the meat covered with water and bring to a boil.  Remove foam from soup, add peppercorns, salt, onion, celery leaves, bayleaf, and parsley.  Let it cook on low heat, covered for about two hours.

Prepare the vegetable, slice the cabbage, peel and cut the celeriac in cubes, slice the onion (or leek), peel carrots and potatoes and cut them into cubes.
