CREAMY MUSHROOM SOUP

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tablespoons salted butter
1 1/2 pounds mushrooms, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves picked
1 medium onion, diced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sherry
4 cups vegetable stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
Roughly torn fresh parsley, for serving
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium-high heat. When the butter has melted, add a third of the mushrooms to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until dark golden brown, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then remove them from the pot and reserve for serving.
  • In the same pot, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Reduce the heat to medium and, when the butter has melted, add the rest of the mushrooms, along with the garlic, celery, thyme and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle the vegetables with the flour and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, then cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes, allowing the flour to cook.
  • Slowly pour in the sherry, stirring all the time, then slowly add the stock. Keep stirring to reduce the likelihood of lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced and thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Using an immersion blender, puree until the mushrooms are mostly broken up into small barley-sized bits. (NOTE: You may use a blender, though allow the soup to cool until warm before pureeing.) Add the cream and heat until the pot is simmering. Add the balsamic, then taste and adjust the seasonings.
  • Serve warm in bowls with the reserved mushrooms on top. Garnish with parsley and crusty chunks of warm bread.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your soup a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, oyster, and portobello 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 on hand, you can use water, but your soup will be less flavorful.
  • Season your soup to taste. This means adding salt, pepper, and other spices to your liking. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or white wine to brighten the flavor.
  • Serve your soup with a garnish. This could be something simple like a sprinkle of chopped parsley or thyme, or something more substantial like a dollop of sour cream or a slice of crusty bread.

Conclusion:

Mushroom soup is a delicious, hearty, and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a soup that is both flavorful and satisfying. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give mushroom soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
