Ingredients

  • 1 small onion finely diced
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 12 ounces mushrooms brown or white, sliced
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup white wine
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cook onion & thyme in butter 3 minutes or until slightly soft. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until juices are released, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 1 minute more.
  2. Cook mushrooms 2 minutes while stirring. Add white wine and allow to cook down until almost evaporated (about 4-5 minutes).
  3. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir. Add chicken broth a little at a time until smooth. Add bay leaf and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes uncovered.
  4. Discard bay leaf. Remove about ½ cup of mushrooms and finely chop (or blend with a little bit of liquid if preferred). Return to the soup with heavy cream.
  5. Simmer 3 minutes more and serve.

Notes

  • Once soup is cooked (before adding the cream) you can puree if you'd prefer a smoother soup or chop mushrooms and return to the soup to reach desired consistency.
