can you taste the freshness?
I love dill, it’s my favourite herbe. This is my Grandma’s recipe- no one can make it like she can, but give it a shot!
Dill Soup
1/2 onion, diced
2 cups fresh dill, chopped fine
large potato, cubed small
1/2 cup rice
salt and pepper, to taste
1 egg
1 cup sour cream
1 tbsp vinegar (or a little more. . . )
Soften onion in a little butter or olive oil in a medium-large pot. Add half a pot of water. Add dill, potato, rice and s + p. Cook until tender. Beat egg and add to sour cream and vinegar. Warm this up slowly by adding a bit of the soup in batches until it is hot enough to add to the remaining soup (without cooking the egg). Warm it up a little more. . . serve.
Great with sandwiches.
Fun Fact: As you may know, dill comes in too big bunches. After you’ve used it for what you intended it for, it usually ends up going bad in the fridge, like, “what the fun am I going to do with all this dill? ” (southern accent) One time I bought a bunch to make this soup, and since I had some left over I also made a yogurt-dill type salad dressing. Both the leftover dill soup and dressing were in the fridge. Dom came home from work one day and warmed himself up a bowl of “dill soup”. I walked in on him at the table trying to eat the “soup”, which was actually the salad dressing! Hot yogurt salad dressing! Ew! He wasn’t too happy. So anyway, anytime I mention making dill soup he makes an exaggerated sad face and shakes his head. I don’t know if he will ever enjoy it again.
