Hello honest people. Continuing the theme of soups, it will be an unforgivable mistake not to talk about the recipe for me, which I got acquainted with a long time ago and over the years have tried different variations with it. This soup will be a great help in the autumn-winter period, and in warmer times it will be a good substitute for heavy soups when you want a hearty, but not burdensome dish for the stomach. So, friends, I'm making a creamy mushroom soup with cream. I will tell you about replacements and modifications, as usual, in the relevant part.
You will need the following:
- Champignons - 800g.
- Garlic - 2 cloves.
- Onions - 1 pc.
- Butter - 1 tbsp.
- Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
- Chicken broth - 800ml.
- Cream 15-20% - 200ml.
- Round bread or rolls - 2pcs.
- Thyme, black pepper - to taste
For broth:
- Half chicken
- Pepper peas
- Parsley, stalk celery, bay leaf, salt - to taste and desire
How to cook:
1. First you need broth. It is very convenient if you have it, like I have today, frozen, then it will be enough just to warm it up. If not, then everything is as usual: 1.5-2 liters of cold water on medium heat, place there either half of the chicken, or its separate "parts", or the chicken frame and something from the desired parts of the carcass. Then bring to a boil over low heat and carefully remove all the foam. Cook over low heat, so that it barely boils, 1.5 hours (in the case of homemade chicken, it can be more). But usually an hour is enough. Half an hour before readiness, add twisted thread: a little parsley, a slice of celery stalk, a couple of bay leaves. Add a little black pepper
peas. At the end of cooking, strain everything and salt.
Alternatively, such a soup can be cooked in vegetable broth or simply in water, if you want a completely light version.
2. Peel the onion and garlic. Crush the garlic with a knife and cut into small cubes with the onion.
3. Wash the mushrooms, pat dry with a towel and cut into large slices.
4. Turn on the oven at 180 C. Cut off the tops of the bread and remove the crumb, leaving the walls 1 cm thick. Be careful not to damage the bottom. Save the crumb.
5. Grease the inside and outside of the bread with butter and send to the oven with the lids (put them side by side) for 15 minutes. The bread should dry out and become crispy.
6. Heat butter and vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the onion and garlic over low heat until a beautiful, barely golden color. 5-7 minutes is enough.
7. Add chopped mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
8. Bring broth to a boil. Add onion with garlic and mushrooms, boil.
9. Using a blender, turn everything into puree, gradually adding bread crumb. This will regulate the density. The texture of the soup should be completely uniform.
10. Pour in the cream and heat the dish over low heat, not boiling.
11. Align to taste with salt and black pepper.
12. Mushroom cream soup with champignons with cream is ready.
13. Pour into heated soup bowls.
14. Or - in bread.
Bon Appetit!
Technical issues and replacements
1. Soaked porcini or forest mushrooms can be added to champignons. This will enhance the flavor and aroma of the creamy soup.
2. Stalk celery also goes well in this soup.
3. Champignons can be used fried along with onions, as I did, or raw. I do that too sometimes. I suggest you try and compare.
4. Sometimes, instead of crumb, potatoes or flour are used for thickness. I tried - with potatoes it seemed harder to me somehow. But this is at the level of sensations.
conclusions
Delicate, creamy, like a creamy sauce, silk - all these adjectives are just about this mushroom soup with cream. Pour it into a still warm, crispy bun or warmed-up soup plate, top with a couple of toasted mushrooms, pour over with olive or truffle oil (don't judge strictly, I have a small supply), sprinkle with large black pepper, fresh thyme. And if there are still crackers, then generally fire. Guys, this is really tasty, believe Bra :) And I also came across delicious soup rolls today, they just flew away. So I recommend looking for delicious bread from the bakery and be sure to make this cream soup. And if you get to the recipe, then tell and show what happened.
All the bright autumn, people. Your Bra from Odessa.
