Creamy Mushroom Soup
Prep time: 10mins Cook time: 30-35mins
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound (450g) mushrooms, sliced (a mix of cremini, button, and shiitake works well)
- 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth (preferably homemade bone broth)
- 2 tablespoons Folona Bone broth powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or a gluten-free alternative)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent. Add minced garlic and continue cooking for another minute until fragrant.
- Add sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook until they release their moisture and become golden brown.
- Pour in the broth, stirring well. Add bone broth powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- In a small bowl, mix flour with a few tablespoons of water to create a smooth paste. Slowly whisk the flour paste into the simmering soup until it thickens slightly.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Let the soup simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper according to your preference.
- Ladle the creamy mushroom soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
