Authentic Polish Pickle Soup Zupa Orgorkowa Recipes

DILL PICKLE SOUP

Steps:

• In a soup pot place baby ribs and cover with water or stock
• Add leeks, parsnips cut in a half (you will want to remove them once the soup is cooked)
• Add chopped carrots, celery and potatoes
• Add parsley springs, bay leaves, allspice
• Cover and cook until meat is cooked and veggies are soft
• You can add some salt and pepper at this point but be prepared to finish seasoning once the pickles are added to the soup
• In a separate sauce pan melt the butter and add shredded pickles
• Cook for about 5 minutes
• Add as much water to only slightly cover the pickles and cook for another 15 minutes
• Once everything is cooked and soft, add pickles to the broth
• At this point you should adjust seasoning with salt, pepper and optionally with water from the cucumbers brine
• You may want to remove parsnip and leeks so they are not getting in your way
• In a cap add cream and optionally flour (I skipped flour for my version) and mix together
• Start adding a little bit of soup into this cap and mix well
• Repeat this until you almost have the whole cap of soup with cream mixture
• Then just pour it into the soup and mix well
• Add dill and serve immediately
