I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have added too much water.

This soup is a bit too sour for my taste. I think I'll add a little bit of sugar next time I make it.

I'm not a huge fan of sorrel, but I really enjoyed this soup. The dill and other herbs really helped to balance out the sour flavor.
