06 - Pour in vegetable broth, add bay leaf and dried thyme. Bring to a gentle simmer.
07 - Carefully drop shaped potato dumplings into the simmering soup. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until dumplings float and are cooked through.
08 - Add ground black pepper, pickle brine, chopped dill pickles, and salt to taste. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
