Creamy Dill Potato Soup

Nothing pleases me more than filling my kitchen with the aroma of soup simmering on the stove, especially when it reminds me of my beloved Kosher Dill Pickles. Creamy Dill, one of my favorite soup recipes, marries flavor, nourishment, satisfaction and the traditions of diverse cultures. The word "dill" comes from the Old Norse word dylla, meaning to soothe or lull. The ancient Romans considered dill to be good luck while the Egyptians used it as an aphrodisiac. And today? I think you'll agree with me that dill means delicious.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 medium onion, halved and sliced
  • 5 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 5 large Bubbies Kosher Dill Pickles, about 2 cups, chopped
  • ⅔ cup pickle brine
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh dill to garnish

Directions

  1. Melt butter in a large pot, and sauté onion until translucent.
  2. Stir in broth, pickles, pickle brine, and potatoes.
  3. Bring to boil, reduce heat, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
  4. Use an immersion blender, or transfer to a blender, and blend until smooth.
  5. Add sour cream and stir until creamy.
  6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Garnish with a pickle slice and some fresh dill.
