After discovering that this dill pickle soup was totally a thing at the Polish Village Cafe in Hamtramck, my wife and her sister, who are obsessed with their Polish heritage, decided to make this a part of our repertoire. It sounds crazy but it works, and most people we introduce to it, love it.

I've been making dill pickle soup for years now and I actually liked this recipe better than my previous go to. It's not a soup you would want on a weekly basis but it is one you should try at least once before letting the title scare you off. You do need to like dill pickles to like this soup but it is not overly pickley as you'd think. The only thing that didn't work for me as written was the consistency. I knew 9 cups of broth would have made it way too thin so I started with 4 cups and went from there. 5 cups ended up being perfect for us. This will be my new to go recipe. Thanks for sharing!

I added half a diced onion with the other vegetables instead of using onion salt. I also waited until the end to add the milk and just stirred it in for the last 5 minutes. I would have preferred less dill, about a teaspoon. I have never tried this kind of soup and it was wonderful. Great texture and taste. Read More
