Steps:

• 1. Combine broth, potatoes, cauliflower (or additional potato) in a large saucepan. Lay the whole dill and chives on top. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Adjust the heat so it boils briskly and cook until the vegetables are very tender when pierced with a fork, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside until slightly cooled. 2.
