This mushroom soup is rich and filling. Earthy wild rice compliments the deep mushroom flavor that's from the combination of seared mushrooms and mushroom powder. Use full wild rice instead of "wild rice blends." I've used a pressure cooker to speed up the rice step, but you could simmer the rice covered for one hour instead. If you buy dried mushrooms, you'll need a spice/coffee grinder. Otherwise, you can buy pre-powdered mushrooms.

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.

Always a fan of creamy mushroom soups. And this one is brilliant even without real cream. The flavour may vary based the type of mushrooms used. I used wild chanterelles and hedgehog mushrooms picked that day.

I'm not usually the biggest fan of mushrooms, but recently felt compelled to have a creamy mushroom soup and this turned out amazing. I think I like mushrooms now..

Using an onion soup stock, I made this mushroom-packed soup.Microwaving the soup with raw mushrooms in plastic wrap, then allowing it to steam makes the umami of the soup evenly absorb into the mushrooms! For 3 servings. Recipe by Yupun

It's my mother's recipe.Nothing in particular. You just add grated daikon radish to your own recipe for nameko mushroom soup. Recipe by Seroko

Creamy cambozola (a melding of camembert and gorgonzola) combines with earthy mushrooms to create a rich soup with a bit of funky personality.

This is basically a rendition of the classic French dish known as "Bouef Bourguignon" from the Burgundy region. This is a wonderful soup with mirepoix, mushrooms, beef and thyme. Perfect for cold weather.

My mother taught me this recipe.Please don't boil the nameko mushrooms and tofu for too long. If you can't get the timing right and they're overcooked when you add the miso, try adding the miso first and then add the nameko and tofu. If you do that, then after adding the miso, don't let the soup come to a boil. For 4 servings. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221.

To appreciate the special flavors that native wild rice brings, make the mushroom soup you are familiar with, add only the steamed wild rice and simmer the flavors together. Here is my soup recipe of dried shiitake mushrooms with native wild rice. The wild rice is from the local Wild Rice Cooperative in the hight mountain lakes nearby.
