Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until the onion turns translucent and the garlic becomes fragrant, which takes about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms into the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown, which takes about 5-7 minutes. You will know the moisture is released when there’s a layer of liquid on the bottom of the pot.
- Evenly sprinkle the flour over the cooked mushrooms, stirring well to coat them. Cook for an additional minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
- Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable broth while stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for approximately 15 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
- Carefully blend the soup until it turns smooth and creamy using either an immersion blender or a regular blender. If using a regular blender, work in batches and exercise caution while working with the hot soup.
- If needed, return the soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream and dried thyme. Season with salt and pepper according to taste. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to ensure thorough heating and melding of flavors.
- Serve the creamy mushroom soup garnished with sautéed mushrooms, fresh parsley or thyme, and enjoy it while still hot.
