In a large soup pot over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and sauté
until soft. Add white wine and continue cooking until almost all
liquid evaporates. Reduce heat to low and stir in flour (do not

In a large bowl, combine water and pickle juice; add and in all
at once to onion mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until
soup slightly thickens. Add dill weed.
