[culinary_connoisseur]

Hey everyone! If you're craving something cozy and delicious, you've got to try this Cream of Mushroom Soup recipe.

Ingredients
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons butter
2 pounds (900g) cremini (or button) mushrooms, cleaned, roughly chopped or sliced 1/8-inch thick
Small handful shiitake mushrooms, chopped
3/4 cup minced shallots
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
4 cups (1 liter) chicken stock
1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Method

1. Cook the mushrooms:
   • Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, thick-bottomed pot. Once hot, add butter and swirl until melted. Add mushrooms, stirring to coat with oil and butter. Cook on medium-high heat until lightly browned and most of their liquid is released, about 10 minutes. Remove 1 cup of cooked mushrooms and set aside.
2. Add shallots and garlic:
   • Reduce heat to medium. Add minced shallots and garlic to the pot, stirring for about a minute.
3. Season and simmer:
   • Stir in salt, dried tarragon, and stock. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Cook uncovered for 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
4. Purée the soup:
   • Use an immersion blender or transfer in batches to a standing blender to purée the soup until smooth. Return the puréed soup to the pot. If too thick, adjust consistency with water or additional stock.
5. Finish the soup:
   • Whisk in cream and black pepper. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the reserved cooked mushrooms.
6. Serve and enjoy:
   • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, and if you enjoyed the recipe, please consider leaving a star rating and comment below!
