Can you wash it in a solution?

If you don't want to use it, you can get dill dried. It won't be as good, but it will probably be good enough. It all gets pureed at the end anyway, so you don't need the dill for texture, just flavor.

Let me know if you want the recipe and I'll post it.

They have frozen dill cubes like the Frozen garlic cubes. Check the freezer in your local supermarket!!

Boil water with salt and a little pepper and lots of carrots and a large onion. Add parsley and/or celery if available. Add lots of cumin. When the veggies are soft, puree almost completely.

My kids love this one, and it is quick, easy and healthy. I imagine you could fry the onions first, but I never do, and it is still delicious, and this way there is no fat at all.

I just made one that friend gave me:

1 lb carrots
1 verylarge or 2 med onions
Ginger - about an inch long
3-5 garlic cloves depending on your feelings about
garlic
salt
pepper
cinnamon

rice milk or chicken soup broth

Cut carrots into pieces.
Chop onions. Mince ginger and garlic. Saute in olive oil.

add salt, pepper and cinnamon

saute a minute then add carrots. Continue to cook until carrots start to brown a little on the outside/just tender.

Add enough rice milk or chicken broth to cover.
Bring to boil and simmer for an hour. YOu may need to add more liquid...

Use immersion blender and puree. Then add more rice milk or chick broth to get to the consistency you like.

Ok, I did that by memory but it looks right..

Puree of Carrot and Dill Soup (Kosher Palette II)

1 T margarine (I skip this usually)
1 T Olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 pounds carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 large Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced
5-6 cups chicken stock
1/4 c. dill
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

(1/2 milk or soymilk- optional)

Heat margarine and olive oil in a large pot over med-high heat and saute onion 5-10 minutes or until translucent, stirring occasionally. (Reduce heat if onion browns too quickly) Add carrots and potatoes. Cook for 15-20 minutes. Add 5 cups of broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 30-40 minutes or until carrots are tender. Remove from heat, Puree soup (food processor or immersion blender) Stir in dill, salt, and pepper (and milk, if used), Simmer for 5 minutes.

(I am usually too lazy to chop the dill so finely, so I put it in before I puree it, and then just puree it all together.)

There's a great recipe for one in kosher by design. It's called two toned soup
It's meant to be made in pumpkins, half carrot and half pea, but you can make them separately too.

Thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking about the KBD one but don't have leeks. So I made Cassandra's. Looks nice. I may just freeze it in pints and add to everything (but choc. chip cookie batter, maybe).

I really recommend using fresh dill in this recipe! It adds a lot of great flavor and color.
