CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP NUTRITION RECIPES

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter until bubbly. Add mushrooms, stir to coat and cook down until they have released most of their liquid, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in unsalted chicken broth, onion powder, and garlic powder and bring heat down to a simmer.
• In a small bowl, whisk together milk and flour.
• Stir in milk mixture and cook until soup has thickened, about 1 minute. Season to taste with pepper or favorite no salt seasoning.

Steps:

• Melt 3 T butter in a saucepan and saute the onions slowly for about 8 - 10 minute Do not brown, just get them tender.
• Add the flour and stir over moderate heat for about 3 minute without browning.
• Off heat, beat in the boiling stock or broth with a wire whisk and blend it thoroughly with the flour. Season to taste. Stir in the mushroom stems.
• Simmer partially covered for 20 minutes, skimming occasionally.
• Strain mixture through a fine sieve, pressing juices out of the mushroom stems. I do this by placing the sieve over a large saucepan, letting the juices collect in the pan. Discard the stems and onions in the sieve.
• In another saucepan, melt the 2 T butter.
• Add the sliced mushroom caps, salt and lemon juice.
• Cook slowly for about 5 minutes.
• Pour the mushrooms and their cooking liquid into the saucepan with the strained soup base.
• Simmer for 10 minutes.
• *If you're not serving this immediately, set aside, uncovered, with a spoonful of cream or milk filming the surface. Reheat to simmer jut before proceeding.
• Beat the 2 egg yolks and 1/2 - 3/4 C cream in a mixing bowl. Add the hot soup by ladle-fuls until a cup has been added. Gradually add this back into the simmering soup.
• Stir soup over moderate heat for a minute or two to poach the eggs, but do not let soup come near a simmer.
• Correct seasoning.
• Off heat, stir in the remaining butter by spoonfuls, if desired.
