This very unusual Dill Pickle Soup tastes fantastic! It always surprises my guests when they discover that it has dill pickles in it. Excellent for a dinner party to give your meal a spectacular start. I have used this wonderful soup in several of my dinner party menus.
This Dill Pickle soup is so addictive! Give this soup a try and see and taste what I am talking about.
Please check out my Grilled Peppery Pinot Noir Tenderloin dinner menu and Pork Loin with Pumpkin Sage Bread Pudding dinner menu which include this fantastic Dill Pickle Soup.

I used to eat at Trianon in Portland Oregon, at least twice a week, just to have Chef Otto’s Dill Pickle Soup!! I’ve tried to make it from his recipe, a few times .. it’s still delicious, but just not the same ☹
