Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons butter
½ onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 (13.75 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half cream
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon dried rosemary leaves, crumbled
½ cup crumbled Gorgonzola or blue cheese
1 tablespoon sherry
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet and melt over medium-high heat. Stir in the onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook and stir until onions are soft and mushrooms reduce, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, place the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a pot, and melt over medium-high heat. Stir in the flour; cook and stir until mixture turns golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually pour in the chicken broth, half-and-half, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and rosemary; stir to blend ingredients. Reduce heat to medium. Stir the gorgonzola cheese and mushroom mixture into the chicken broth mixture; bring soup to a simmer and cook 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Place half of the soup into a blender. Blend until smooth, and return to the pot. Stir in the sherry, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes more. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, to serve.

I thought this soup was really bland. It needed more seasoning. I added some salt, pepper, and garlic powder and it was much better.

This soup was okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

I wasn't a fan of this soup. The flavors were just not my thing. I think it's because I'm not a big fan of gorgonzola.

This soup was a bit too rich for my taste. The gorgonzola was a bit overpowering. However, I think it would be great for someone who loves strong flavors.
