Instructions
Mushrooms

Make the Broth
- Add 1 cup of water with 1 tablespoon 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.
