Creamy Mushroom Soup - Kelsey

The whole family was together this week. I handed the cookbook to Tom and told him to pick something. He picked the mushroom soup. He loves mushrooms.

I ordered mushrooms through grocery delivery so it was a little uncertain which kinds were coming.

We got a pretty good selection.

Tom washed and sliced them.

We got those cooking down because we knew it was going to take forever. 

Mark sliced onion and leek.

Tom and Mark together made some croutons to put on the soup. 

Here are mushrooms pouring out their water. 

After all of the water is gone you add the onion and leek. And thyme. And bay leaves but I ran out.

Sprinkle some flour in when those are soft.

Then add milk.

And stock.

Tom cooked up the garnish mushrooms.

Simmer the soup for 10 minutes and then blend.

 

Salt and pepper and it's done!

Here is how Kenji says to serve it:

Here is with added croutons:

This was great! Easy ingredients and easy to make. Everyone here that loves mushrooms loved it!
