A Pioneer Woman recipe that I changed slightly to make it a bit more "Mushroomy". Incredibly easy to make and stores well in the refrigerator for a week.
Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp (1/2 stick) salted butter
- 1 1/2 lbs button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 lb baby portabella mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 stalks celery, sliced
- 2 springs thyme, leaves
- 2 tbsp flour
- 3/4 cup sherry
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt 2 tbsp of butter over medium high heat. Add the mushrooms. Cook until dark golden brown season with salt and pepper.
- Once the mushrooms are dark brown remove them from the pot and place them on a plate, setting aside for later.
- Add the remaining 2 tbsp of butter and add onion, garlic, and celery. cook, stirring often, about 3-5 minutes until vegetables soften.
- Add the mushrooms back into the pot, thyme, and bit more salt and pepper
- Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables
- Cook for about 3 minutes
- Pour in the sherry and stir, then add the both broths
- Let the soup cook for about 20 minutes
- Using an immersion blender puree the mixture together to the consistency you prefer. I like a little bit of "chunk" left in it.
- Add the cream and balsamic vinegar and any salt and pepper you may think it needs, tasting the soup to make sure the seasoning is ok.Happy Eating!!
