Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium russet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 large carrot grated
  • 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • cups chopped dill pickles
  • ½ cup pickle juice
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cloves garlic minced

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt adjust to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot over medium-high heat, bring the broth to a boil.

  • Stir in the chopped pickles and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream and flour until smooth.
  • Slowly ladle about ½ cup of hot broth into the sour cream mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
