Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup unsalted butter
2 pounds sliced fresh mushrooms
1 pinch salt
1 yellow onion, diced
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 sprigs fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic, peeled
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves for garnish, or to taste

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium-high heat; cook mushrooms in butter with 1 pinch salt until the mushrooms give off their juices; reduce heat to low. Continue to cook, stirring often, until juices evaporate and the mushrooms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Set aside a few attractive mushroom slices for garnish later, if desired. Mix onion into mushrooms and cook until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 more minutes.
  • Stir flour into mushroom mixture and cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes to remove raw flour taste. Tie thyme sprigs into a small bundle with kitchen twine and add to mushroom mixture; add garlic cloves. Pour chicken stock and water into mushroom mixture. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 hour. Remove thyme bundle.
  • Transfer soup to a blender in small batches and puree on high speed until smooth and thick.
  • Return soup to pot and stir in cream. Season with salt and black pepper and serve in bowls, garnished with reserved mushroom slices and a few thyme leaves.

Tips:

  • Use fresh mushrooms: Fresh mushrooms have a more intense flavor than canned or dried mushrooms. If you can, try to use a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the soup: Sautéing the mushrooms in butter or oil will help to bring out their flavor and give the soup a richer taste.
  • Use a good quality chicken broth: The chicken broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with real chicken and has a rich flavor.
  • Add some herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to add flavor and depth to the soup. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, and black pepper.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be cooked until the mushrooms are tender, but not mushy. Overcooking the soup will make it bland and watery.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish: A garnish can help to add a touch of elegance to the soup. Some good options include chopped parsley, grated Parmesan cheese, or a swirl of heavy cream.

Conclusion:

Cream of mushroom soup is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious cream of mushroom soup that will impress your family and friends.
