Cooking Instructions
- 1
Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium-high heat; cook mushrooms in butter with 1 pinch salt until the mushrooms give off their juices; reduce heat to low. Continue to cook, stirring often, until juices evaporate and the mushrooms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Set aside a few attractive mushroom slices for garnish later, if desired. Mix onion into mushrooms and cook until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 more minutes.
- 2
Stir flour into mushroom mixture and cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes to remove raw flour taste. Tie thyme sprigs into a small bundle with kitchen twine and add to mushroom mixture; add garlic cloves. Pour chicken stock and water into mushroom mixture. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 hour. Remove thyme bundle.
- 3
Transfer soup to a blender in small batches and puree on high speed until smooth and thick.
- 4
Return soup to pot and stir in cream. Season with salt and black pepper and serve in bowls, garnished with reserved mushroom slices and a few thyme leaves.

Mushroom Soup Mushroom Soup
I am a huge fan of mushroom soup. As much as I remember, I used to survive on Campbell's mushroom soup during my military years. That and some instant ramen. I had experimented, researched and tasted my fair share of mushroom soups. Eventually, I had settled for Heston Blumenthal's version. I love how he adds potatoes to enhance the creaminess of the soup and also the stacking aroma from the addition of leeks.I used a varieties of mushrooms instead of just one. There are so many to choose from, the wild expensive to the underrated cheaper ones. In the end, I settled for my 2 favorite; shiitake and Swiss brown button mushrooms. What really stands out here is Heston blitz some dried mushrooms into powder and act as a garnish. It really kicks this soup up a notch. Before drooling over that, let's get started with the recipe.

Mushroom Soup Mushroom Soup
This recipe comes from a milk calendar, but has been modified slightly from the original recipe. My husband prefers to have bits of mushroom in his soup, so I puree only 1/2 of the soup and add it back to the pot for him. When my daughters are home, I puree all of the soup and add the cheddar cheese.
