"This is so easy to put together, and it's delicious. You will never go back to canned mushroom soup after trying this recipe! I have made this using both the evaporated milk and the half and half cream and I have even used a mixture of both. It's all up to each individuals preference."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat, in a heavy bottom pot or Dutch oven.

Step 2

Add the mushroom and cook until soft and almost all the juices have evaporated. Pour the mushrooms into a bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Return the pot to the stovetop, and melt the remaining butter, add onions, garlic, thyme, and rosemary, and cook until the onions are translucent.

Step 4

Add the wine and cook until the liquid is reduced to half.

Step 5

Stir in half the mushrooms and 2 tablespoons flour and mix until everything is wet and coated, cook for about half a minute, until slightly bubbling.

Step 6

Add the broth, a little bit at a time, until it has thickened to a gravy consistency.

Step 7

Slowly stir in the cream or evaporated milk and warm through.

Step 8

Cream the mixture with an immersion blender, then add the remaining mushrooms.

Step 9

Ladle into bowls and enjoy!

A great tasting soup and one that is already looking to a repeat. Used half and half which worked well for me. This one is a delicious make again recipe.

This is so good. I love mushroom soup, and prefer homemade to the canned stuff with all the preservatives. I used half and half because I don’t like the taste of canned milk. I also liked that this made a small amount.

Absolutely a mushroom lovers soup! It is full of mushroomy flavour, rich with the homemade broth. Used a Chardonnay, and used half whipping cream and water as I did not have the evaporated milk. DH commented twice during dinner how lovely this soup is! So enjoyed making this. Your recipe will see many repeats for sure! Thank you for sharing Bea. Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.
