Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Morel Mushroom Soup.
Step 1
Begin by melting butter in a spacious pot over medium heat, allowing its rich aroma to fill the kitchen.
Step 2
Next, introduce minced garlic, diced onion, and sliced morel mushrooms to the pot.
Step 3
Stir frequently, watching as the onions transform into a soft, translucent delight in about five minutes.
Step 4
Once the vegetables are tender, sprinkle in the chicken soup base and flour, cooking for an additional one to two minutes to create a harmonious blend.
Step 5
Gradually pour in water and heavy cream, stirring gently as the mixture comes to a simmer.
Step 6
Let it bubble away for five minutes, allowing the flavors to intertwine beautifully.
Step 7
For a velvety texture, carefully puree half of the soup in a blender, ensuring you fill it no more than halfway each time to avoid spills.
Step 8
Return the silky puree to the pot, then lower the heat and let it simmer for another ten to fifteen minutes, stirring occasionally to keep everything well combined.
Step 9
Finally, season your creation with ground dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to taste, and prepare to serve a bowl of warmth and comfort that will surely delight your guests.
