Mushroom Bisque


Hey! Don't judge a soup by its color! Though this Mushroom Bisque looks drab, it tastes so nice! I simmered whole crimini and white button mushrooms in a kettle with onion, garlic, celery, butter, and salt. After everything got super soft, I blended it together with tender potatoes, thyme, soy sauce, and a skosh of sherry. The soup was heated with some milk (and a dab of cream!) and freshly ground black pepper.  Better than the canned cream of mushroom I used to devour as a kid!

  2. I am glad you can get past the appearance! I try not to judge my food, but this time it was a little hard.

    The only part that made this soup a little laborious was the blending, which always make me break out in a kitchen sweat. Hecka dumb, but worth it for the smooth and creamy times!
