Polish Sour Cucumber Soup Recipe

 

Traditional Polish soup

 

Ingredients

2 large cans chicken or vegetable broth

5 medium potatoes

1/2 stick butter

2 carrots (diced)

1/2 teaspoon salt

pepper

1 pint sour cream

4 dill pickles

salt

1/4 to 1/2 cup dill pickle juice

1/2 teaspoon garlic (minced)

1 bay leaf

 

Directions

Peel and dice potatoes. Place broth into a crock pot, bring to quick boil, add

potatoes and boil them in the broth until soft. Meanwhile peel the pickles and

grate them coarsely. Melt the butter in a frying pan, add pickles, carrots and

garlic and let them cook until onions are soft and clear. Put the mixture into a

pot, add bay leaf, salt, pepper and pickle juice. Taste and add a little dill

pickle juice if necessary- the soup should have a pleasantly sour taste. Mix the

sour cream with the flour and slowly stir into the soup. Allow to simmer until

soup is lightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and

with thick, crusty bread.
