Instructions
- In a large soup pot, combine butter, onion, celery, and carrot. Cook until the onion begins to soften. Sprinkle with flour and cook 1 minute more.
- Scrub and dice the potatoes.
- Add the broth, potatoes, pickles, and dried dill to the soup. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, over low heat for 30 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
- Uncover and using a potato masher, mash to thicken to desired consistency. Stir in sour cream and simmer uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes more.
- Garnish with additional sour cream, and fresh dill if desired.
Notes
- Pickles: In this soup, it's best to use a Polish brine-style dill pickle (ogórki kiszone) or a pickle with low vinegar. While they can be pricey online, they're much less expensive if you have a local European grocery market or Polish market.
- Many traditional recipes peel the pickles, I don't usually peel them. While carrot and celery are not generally found in the old school recipes, I like that they stretch the soup a bit further, and the sweetness from the carrot balances the flavor a bit.
- Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days and in the freezer for 6 months.
