Instructions
- In a medium-sized skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
- Add mushrooms and soy sauce and sauté for about 5 minutes or until mushrooms have cooked down and very tender.
- Sprinkle flour over the top of the mushrooms and stir until a thick paste forms. Cook for another minute or two until flour is well incorporated.
- Slowly add milk while whisking constantly. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Add beef bouillon and stir until well incorporated. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- You want this to be slightly thicker than gravy (it is a condensed soup after all) so keep that in mind if it seems a little thick. It will also thicken up upon cooling.
- Allow to cool and place in an airtight container. Refrigerate or freeze until ready to use.
Notes
- 1 serving = 1/2 cup prepared This recipe makes about three cups of condensed soup. A store bought can of cream of mushroom soup (10.75 ounces) is 1 1/4 cups. Just something to keep in mind when using this for a recipe.
