Step 3: Add Pickles and Flavor
Stir in the grated or chopped dill pickles and pickle juice.
Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Step 4: Add Creamy Finish
In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream with a few tablespoons of the hot soup broth to temper it and prevent curdling.
Slowly stir the tempered sour cream into the soup.
Step 5: Season and Garnish
Stir in the dried or fresh dill. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed (be cautious with salt, as pickles and pickle juice are naturally salty).
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or additional dill.
Tips for Success:
Adjust the Pickle Juice: Start with 1/2 cup and add more to your taste preference.
For a Creamier Soup: Blend a portion of the soup with an immersion blender before adding the sour cream.
Make It Heartier: Add cooked shredded chicken or crumbled sausage for extra protein.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve with crusty bread or traditional Polish rye bread for dipping.
Pair with a light salad or pickled vegetables for a complete meal.
