Creamy Mushroom Soup – Page 2

Make the roux: Sprinkle flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for 1–2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Add broth: Slowly pour in the broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the soup to a gentle simmer and cook for 10–15 minutes, allowing it to thicken and develop flavor.

Blend (optional): For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to puree part or all of the soup to your desired consistency.

Add cream: Stir in the cream and heat through without boiling. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve: Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh thyme or parsley. Enjoy with crusty bread or a crisp salad.

Tips & Variations

Go wild: Mix different mushroom varieties for more complex flavor.
Make it vegan: Use plant-based butter and cream alternatives and vegetable broth.
Add depth: A splash of white wine or a dash of soy sauce adds umami richness.
Thicken naturally: Use pureed white beans or cauliflower for a creamier texture without flour.
