Pickle Soup. This creamy Polish dill pickle soup recipe is common in Eastern Europe where pickling is a favorite way to preserve fruits, vegetables, meats, and eggs. In a large saucepan or soup pot with cover, combine stock, pickles, pickle liquid & potatoes. Finely chopped dill pickles are combined with lots of seasonings in chicken broth to make a very unique soup.
This soup is made from a century-old Swiss recipe.
Traditionally it is a winter soup, but we serve it year-round because of the demand.—Nancy Ross, Salem, Oregon More Pickle.
