Ingredients

Mushrooms

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 2 clove garlic minced
  • 12 oz cremini mushrooms chopped
  • 12 oz white button mushrooms chopped
  • 3 tablespoons paprika, Hungarian
  • 2 teaspoons dill
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoons pepper

Broth of the Soup

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce

Instructions

Mushrooms

  • Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a 6 quarts soup pot.
  • Saute the onions until translucent, add the garlic and saute for another minute.
  • Add the mushrooms and sauté until the mushrooms release their juices.

Make the Broth

  • Add 1 cup of water with 1 tbsp of cornstarch  and mix in bowl.
  • Add the beef broth to the pot with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  • Add the soy sauce, paprika, dill, salt and pepper and whisking until the mixture is smooth. Bring to a boil then lower heat.
  • Add the cornstarch mix and stir. It should be a silky smooth broth with some thickness.
  • Pour mushrooms in the soup pot.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, Cook stirring occasionally.
  • Top with fresh parsley and a spoon of sour cream before serving
  • Add salt and pepper as desired. Enjoy

Notes

  • When I am ready to serve the soup, try putting a little parsley on top along with vegan sour cream from Daiya products which I love.
  • Before you pour the broth into the mushroom mixture taste for seasoning. It’s best to add season at this time.
  • The broth should have a light coat on the spoon for thickness.
  • I prefer a creamy broth. If it's not thick enough sprinkle cornstarch to thicken.
  • Replace the 1 cup of water with heavy cream, if you would like a heavier creamy soup.
