- What to Serve With Chicken and Dumplings will give you many side dishes that would go perfectly with this soup.
- Don’t overcook your mushrooms. They should be cooked until just tender, not mushy.
- Add water to thin out the mixture if needed.
- Letting the pureed soup simmer for 20 minutes gives it time to develop flavor and thicken up slightly for a richer consistency overall when served.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup together for a smoother texture and easier cleanup.
- If using fresh herbs to garnish, add them right at the end so they don’t lose their flavor during cooking time.
