Ingredients
- 6 Pickled cucumbers
- 3 Potatoes
- 2 Carrots
- 1 Onion
- 6 cups Vegetable stock
- 1/2 cup Sour cream
- 1/4 cup Dill
- 2 tbsp Butter
Steps
- Grate the pickles on the coarse side; their juice goes in too — nothing wasted.
- Simmer the potatoes, carrot, and onion in the stock 15 minutes until tender.
- Add the grated pickles with a cup of their brine; simmer 10 minutes more.
- The soup should be brightly sour; adjust with more brine, never vinegar.
- Swirl in the sour cream off the heat and the butter for richness.
- Serve with dill and rye bread; ogórkowa is summer in a bowl, pickled.
