Instructions: Fill a big soup pot with water. Add the onion, carrots, parsnip, salt and pepper, garlic. Bring to boil and then simmer for 1/2 hour. Add potato, celery and wine and simmer 1/2 hour. Add parsley and dill and simmer 15 minutes. Add more salt and pepper to taste.

The fresh dill is vital; it makes the soup practically indistinguishable from the non-vegetarian kind, especially when served with knoedlach.
