Ingredients:
- 1.50 Pound Yukon Gold potatoes

- 1.00 Teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.50 Teaspoon black pepper
- 1.00 Piece yellow onion
- 5.00 Cup vegetable broth

- 1.00 Cup dill pickles
- 0.50 Cup pickle brine

Instructions:
- Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook onion, carrots, celery, and salt until softened, about 7 minutes.

- Stir in potatoes and broth. Simmer for 16 to 18 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.

- Do not boil hard after adding sour cream.
- Rye toast or a simple cabbage salad works well alongside.
