Sour Cream Soup

A typically Russian dish

• 6 cups chicken stock (or 6 packs MBT Chicken Consomme powder dissolved in 6 cups hot water)
• 1 teaspoon cumin seed
• 3 boiled potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup sweet heavy cream
• 1 T flour
• salt, pepper

Combine stock, seasonings and cumin seed in a saucepan, bring to the boil and simmer 10 minutes.

Make a smooth paste of the flour and sour cream; pour a cup of hot stock onto it, beating until smooth, and add this mixture to the pot of stock.

Stir thoroughly, add the sweet cream and potatoes, and simmer 10 minutes over very low heat. Do not allow the soup to boil after adding the sweet cream.

Serve hot.
