ROASTED MUSHROOM, ONION, AND GARLIC SOUP



Roasted Mushroom, Onion, and Garlic Soup image

A tasty mushroom soup made with no milk or cream. White beans are used to thicken, and roasting mushrooms, onions, and garlic in the oven add great flavor. It's a flexible recipe. You can use any combination of mushrooms that you'd like, and any kind of broth that you'd like. This recipe calls for pureeing the onions, garlic and a small amount of the mushrooms, leaving most of the mushroom quarters for the soup, but you can puree as many of the mushrooms as you'd like. I've tried it as written, and also with all of it pureed. I actually like it best all pureed - it's like a more traditional mushroom soup. Adapted from a recipe found online - the original also called for 3 cans of beans, half of which were pureed, and half were left whole for the soup.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Mushroom     Vegetarian

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 onions, divided
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Salt Freshly ground black pepper
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1 rib of celery, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced shallot
1 pound cremini mushrooms, washed and trimmed of any dry ends
1 cup white wine, preferably Chardonnay
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 quart vegetable stock
3/4 cup heavy cream
Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for garnish
2 teaspoons minced chives

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Peel one of the onions but leave it whole. Rub 1 tablespoon of the oil and a pinch each of the salt and pepper over the onion, then wrap it in foil. Roast the onion until it is softened and lightly caramelized, about 1 hour. Remove and cool. 2. Meanwhile, peel and chop the remaining onion. 3. Heat a medium, heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped onion, carrot and celery and cook until softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic, shallots and mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Reserve one mushroom to garnish the finished soup. 4. Stir in the wine, making sure to scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the fresh thyme and bring the contents to a gentle simmer. Cook until the mushrooms soften, about 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the vegetable stock and continue to simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. 5. Remove from the heat and purée the soup with an immersion blender, or in batches in a blender. Return the soup to low heat and stir in the cream. Season with a generous teaspoon of salt and a pinch of pepper, or to taste. This makes about 8 cups of soup. 6. Chop the roasted onion into pieces no larger than one-quarter inch. Stir the chopped onion into the soup. Check and adjust the seasoning if desired. 7. Slice the reserved mushroom into 8 very thin, lengthwise slices. Ladle the soup into warmed bowls. Garnish each portion with a thin shaving of the Parmigiano-Reggiano, one-fourth teaspoon of the chives and a thin slice of mushroom. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your soup a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. Some good additions include thyme, rosemary, sage, and paprika.
  • Make sure to caramelize the onions until they are golden brown. This will give them a delicious sweet flavor.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup.
  • Don't overcook the mushrooms. They should be tender but still have a little bit of texture.
  • Serve the soup with a crusty bread or a green salad.

Conclusion:

This roasted onion mushroom soup is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The caramelized onions and mushrooms give the soup a rich and flavorful broth, and the addition of fresh herbs and spices makes it even more special. This soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
