Warm up with Chef RV’s Cream of Mushroom Soup—rich, creamy, and made with simple ingredients for a restaurant-quality flavor at home.
Mushrooms are the star of this dish. Their earthy flavor and unique texture make them a favorite in many cuisines. But what kind of mushrooms should you use? While most varieties work well, including a medley can add depth to the flavor. However, the real game-changer is the dried porcini mushrooms. Often referred to as the "King of Mushrooms," porcinis offer an unmatched rich and nutty flavor.
Not all ingredients are easily accessible everywhere. Here are some alternatives:
This soup pairs beautifully with crusty bread, especially when toasted with garlic butter. It also complements green salads, making for a wholesome meal.
Per serving, approx. 250 grams:
The thickness of the soup depends on the flour and the boiling process. Ensure you've added the right amount of flour and allowed the soup to boil well.
Absolutely! However, dried herbs are more potent, so use them sparingly.
In a refrigerator, the soup can last for 3-4 days. If you wish to store it longer, consider freezing it.

Begin by melting the butter in a casserole and sautéing the garlic and onions until translucent.
Add the mushrooms, ensuring they are chopped into varied sizes for an interesting texture.
Incorporate the flour, acting as a thickener, and cook briefly.
Pour in the water, milk, and cream, stirring continuously.
As the mixture boils, it will thicken. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Once boiled, reduce the heat and let it simmer, allowing the flavors to meld.
Finish off with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a dash of truffle oil for an added layer of complexity.

Turned out creamy and rich. I added a splash of white wine while cooking and it elevated the flavors.

This was rich and tasty, but I’d cut back a bit on the cream next time for a lighter version. Still very flavorful!

I usually don’t like mushroom soup, but this one converted me! The creaminess and that touch of garlic made all the difference.

Tried this for dinner and it was a hit! The texture was creamy and the flavor was so comforting. I added a pinch of thyme and it paired beautifully with garlic bread.
