Description

A comforting and tangy dill pickle soup that combines savory ingredients for a delightful dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 medium carrot (peeled & grated)
  • 1 cup finely chopped dill pickles
  • 3 large red potatoes (skins on) (diced)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup pickle juice
  • 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 handful fresh dill (chopped)
  • 3/4 pounds ham (diced)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Add the olive oil, onion, and carrots to a soup pot. Sauté over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients except for the sour cream and flour. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  3. Mix the flour into the sour cream until you have a smooth mixture. Stir it into the soup and cook the soup for another 5 minutes. Season with salt & pepper to taste. Garnish with extra fresh dill if desired.

Notes

  • For a creamier soup, blend a portion of the soup before adding in the sour cream mixture.
  • Adjust the amount of pickle juice to taste for desired tanginess.
