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

MOM'S PICKLE SOUP

Steps:

• Trim pork bones of visible fat. Place 1-3 pork bones in a saucepan and add enough water to cover plus about one inch. Some of the water can be substituted with chicken broth for more flavour.
• Add salt and pepper to taste, allspice (4-5 whole or just a dash if using powder) and bay leaves.
• Cut onion in half and add to water.
• Simmer for about half an hour. Add carrot, parsley root and celery root. These vegetables should be cut in half, just so they cook quicker but don't have to be bite size as they'll be removed later.
• Simmer 15-20 minutes or until veggies are soft. Remove the vegetables, onion and meat.
• Cut one carrot into bite size pieces. Take the meat off the bone and cut into small pieces as well.
• Add the potatoes to the stock and cook until potatoes are tender (15-20 minutes).
• Add back the cut carrot and meat. Add 2 grated pickles and cook for a few minutes to soften them up.
• Season to taste and finish with sour cream (amount will depend on how much soup you've made). To ensure the sour cream dissolves properly, stir it in a separate coup with some hot broth and then add to the soup. Add parsley and serve hot.
• This soup will keep for several days, although the potatoes do get harder the longer it sits. My mom usually breaks the potatoes up before she puts it in the fridge, so they'll be easier to eat the next day.
