Hi Jackie, I am sorry! I added the missing sour-cream step. Thanks for pointing that out to me

I use whatever vinegar I have on hand, but I think someone in here commented (don’t remember what post) that apple cider vinegar is the most similar to the Czech one. But really, either type will do. Good luck!

Do you use apple cider vinegar or white vinegar and in what step do you add the sour cream. I am Czech/Bohemian and my mother would make dill gravy and I really loved it but never paid attention on how to make it. Thank you for your answer and the recipe, can’t wait to try it.

What happened to the sour cream you have in the list of ingredients?

Hi Monica!
I am glad it worked out for you – try the same sauce on any fish – you will love it as well
Also, if you like dill you will fall in love with “Kulajda” (Dill soup) which is also listed in my ‘recipes’ category.

I had a bunch of fresh dill and was searching for a recipe for a “sauce” for new potatoes when I found this recipe. I made this tonight and it was delicious! Not only did it go well with the potatoes, but we drowned our steaks in it!

Hi Julia, yes it is a traditional Czech soup sometimes also called KULAJDA (or Koprova polevka). But the recipes vary quite often as some people like to add their favorite things. I am planning on posting about the soup pretty soon!

Hi! I’ve been searching for a certain Czech soup ever since I had a roommate from the Czech republic. She would make this amazing soup that was creamy with lemon, dill, poached eggs, white vinegar and potatoes in it. I’ve done a lot of internet searching and have found some similar recipes (I think koprováá poléévka or koprovka might be it?) but I haven’t found anything with those exact ingredients. Does that sound like a traditional soup, or maybe something she put together herself? Thanks, you have a very nice website!

Thanks for this great recipe in your archives…. I’m married to a Czech and he was wanting some dill gravy so badly – just like his mom made!
