Chef John's Creamy Mushroom Soup image

This is one of my favorite soups of all time. It is so easy. The secret to this deep, rich soup is a long slow caramelization, the key to unlocking the mushroom's magic. This is just pure essence of mushroom.

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 a variety of mushrooms. This will give your soup a more complex flavor. Some good choices include cremini, shiitake, oyster, and chanterelle mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the soup. This will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from becoming rubbery.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. If you don't have any vegetable broth on hand, you can use water, but add a little extra salt and pepper to taste.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Serve the soup with a garnish of fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your soup.

Conclusion:

Cream of wild mushroom soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even as a snack. It's also a great way to use up leftover mushrooms. With its rich, creamy flavor and hearty texture, this soup is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful meal, give this recipe a try.
