Croatian Dill Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Sauté finely minced onion on 20 g butter until soft. Add flour and sauté it 2 minutes. Add water and make creamy liquid. Add the rest of the water making sure you don't have small flour clods.
• Mince the whole dill (including stem - but very finely) and put it into soup. Season with salt and pepper and cook it for about 30-40 minutes.
• In the meantime cut bread slices into small cubes and fry it on butter until dry and crispy. Put aside.
• When the soup is ready to serve add (in hot soup) sour cream mixed with yolk and lemon.
• If you want really full soup you can add egg-white mixing hard the moment you put it inches.
• Serve with bread cubes (put them in soup).

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy soup pot over medium heat, and add the onion and leeks. Cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, about three minutes, and add 1/2 teaspoon salt, the carrot and the celery. Cook, stirring, for five minutes, and add the garlic. Stir together for about a minute, until fragrant, and add the potatoes, water, salt and the bouquet garni. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for one hour. Remove the bouquet garni.
• Puree the soup in an immersion blender, or blend 1 1/2 cups at a time in a blender, covering the top tightly with a towel to avoid splashes. If you want a smoother consistency, put the soup through a medium strainer.

Serve hot, garnished with garlic croutons and small dill sprigs; or chill and serve cold, garnished with a dollop of yogurt, thinly sliced cucumbers and small dill sprigs.
