SERVES: 8

PREP: 8 Min

COOK TIME: 35 Min

Thick and creamy and studded with loads of mushrooms, this is so good that you'd better start off with extra-big bowls!

What You'll Need

1/4 cup butter
2 pounds fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
7 cups beef broth
2 cups half-and-half

What to Do

Melt the butter in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, onion powder, and pepper and sauté for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender. Stir in the flour for about 1 minute, or until absorbed.
Add the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, add the half-and-half and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Cover and let sit for 10 minutes to thicken before serving.

Notes

Our markets have quite a variety of mushrooms available throughout the year, so go ahead and experiment with different ones!

Could this be frozen with leftovers?

Unfortunately, mushroom soups definitely do not freeze. The mushrooms will be black and the soup will be very watery.

What do you think? I just made this wonderful soup. OMG this is great however I like just alittle more onion flavor so I added 2 more teaspoons of the onion powder and this came out very good.

This sounds delicious. Would taste good with several types of mushrooms. Will be trying this soon.

I imagine you could switch out some of the beef broth for onion broth as well. I am going to do that when I make this soup. It sounds wonderful.
