Toast caraway seeds until fragrant and slightly browned.

Add 2 quarts of water to the toasted caraway seeds and bring to a simmer, partially covering the pot.

Simmer for about 30 minutes to create a caraway-flavored broth, then strain out the seeds.

In a cold pan, add oil and chopped onions, cooking over medium-low heat until translucent, adding salt to help release moisture.

Add garlic at the end of cooking the onions to avoid burning it.

Stir in flour to create a roux, cooking until it coats the bottom of the pan.

Pour half of the caraway broth into the pan with the roux and bring to a simmer, mixing until smooth and thickened.

Prepare a dry pesto by blending walnuts, cheese, garlic, and parsley in a food processor, adding vinegar to taste.

Mix the pesto into the soup before serving.
