    Cream of Mushroom Soup

    It's a family favorite soup as it prepares with basic roux thinned with cream and milk by adding saute mushrooms. Basically, it's a recipe from North America but people around the world love to have it and many restaurants prepare it by adding their regional taste.

    Here I am preparing the classical version of cream of mushroom soup that is super easy and required handful of ingredients from the pantry to make at home.

    It's a nourishing bowl, full of creaminess that can tempt your appetite to have. Best for winters and if you are mushroom lover like me then it's good to have in summer too.

    It's an old recipe that people are using for ages. Normally people use a canned version of mushroom soup that is also good and I personally love Italian and french bechamel flavored mushroom soup. As it's a recipe from America so everybody knows the Campbell started to make this cream of mushroom soup that people love to have.

    Why I love this Soup?

    It's a multi-purpose recipe that you can use to serve a soup or to make creamy mushroom pasta or you have the option to make casseroles or just pour the creamy sauce on baked chicken. It's a comfort food idea perfect for an easy dinner for families. As it's rice and creamy so the kids will surely love it if you serve it with macaroni or pasta.

    If you love mushrooms then don't forget to try our Garlic Mushrooms recipe as it's super easy and quick.

    How to Make Cream of Mushroom Soup

    You only need few ingredients to make this restaurant-style recipe at home. I have used freshly sliced brown mushrooms but you can also use cremini mushrooms or others to make this soup. Cleaned and wash the mushrooms, slice it and saute in butter by adding salt and paprika. As I made it one pot so take out on a plate and prepare the sauce in the same pot.

    To prepare the creamy sauce, added butter and oil in a pan, heated it up and added chopped onions and grated garlic and sauteed on medium heat to turn the onions translucent in texture. Then added All purpose flour and mixed well with onion and grated garlic. Cook for few seconds and as the flour starts to change color then added a glass of milk and a cup of fresh cream and mix well. Seasoned with salt, black pepper, ground thyme or rosemary. Cook for few minutes on low medium heat. Key is to stir the soup continuously to avoid sticking on pan bottom and make smooth creamy texture of soup.

    Then add sauteed mushrooms in sauce! cook and stir well to blend the creaminess.

    Garnish with fresh parsley and serve!

    If you want to make this soup without cream then just add milk and thin with Vegetable Stock to avoid extra creaminess.

    3 Tips to Make Restaurant Style Mushroom Soup

    1. Avoid washing mushrooms in water for too long as the mushrooms are like sponges and absorb the water so it will be difficult to take out. Clean it and rinse with water and make sure to use a cotton cloth to dry the water.
    2. Don't cook the mushroom for too long otherwise, it will be soggy and lose the crunch.
    3. When making sauce, it's important to stir continuously as the roux can stick on the bottom and it will give a burnt taste in the soup.
    4. When making sauce then avoid adding milk on high heat as it can curdle.
