French Mushroom and Scallion Soup image

This is a wonderful soup with unusual ingredients--scallions and mushrooms! The soup has a delicate flavor, and once pureed, becomes thicker and more chowder-like. We loved this with crusty bread and some salmon on the side.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons butter
12 scallions, green and white parts, sliced thinly
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped (or to taste)
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups low sodium chicken broth (or for a vegetarian soup, use vegetable stock)
8 ounces mushrooms, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup heavy cream or 1/2 cup half-and-half, if you want to conserve calories
salt & freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
chopped fresh tarragon (to garnish) or chives (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat the butter in a large pot over moderate heat.
  • Saute the scallions and garlic until tender but not too brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the flour and cook 2 to 3 minutes to get rid of the raw flour taste.
  • Add the stock and mushrooms and bring to a gentle boil, stirring frequently.
  • Simmer covered for 5 minutes.
  • Puree in batches using an electric blender or food processor.
  • (If you have one, an immersion blender is the best!) Strain, return to the pot and add the cream or half& half, salt, and pepper.
  • Reheat and serve garnished with chopped fresh herbs.
  • Serve with a crusty loaf of French bread and a glass of wine.
