The BEST Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup (With Hundreds of 5-Star Reviews!) 🍄🍲
|
Hi Reader, This homemade cream of mushroom soup recipe has been on my site for years and has earned hundreds of 5-star reviews! The whole family loved it from the very first batch, and everyone agrees it’s WAY better than the canned stuff. After all these years, it’s still a favorite, and I wanted to make sure you have this tried-and-true recipe in your collection. 👉 Here’s the recipe: Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup​ What makes this soup special? Taking the time to cook down fresh mushrooms until they release their moisture unlocks their rich, earthy flavor – that’s the secret! Don’t rush this step! I spend about 10-15 minutes just on the mushrooms, and it’s worth every second. The mushrooms shrink down as they release their moisture, and that’s when all the good stuff happens. This patient cooking is what gives the soup its depth. Serve it with some crusty bread for dipping, and you’ve got comfort in a bowl!
