User Reviews:

What a fantastic soup! My husband said to make sure I did not lose this recipe because he LOVED it. I think using fresh dill is key for the fresh flavour. A few notes : I omitted celery and cilantro because I did not have them and the flavour was fine. I also doubled the recipe and it was fine. A great soup to make in late summer when the tomatoes are at their peak!
