Eating this right now and it’s delicious! Came together quicker than I thought it would. I actually pre-cooked the mushrooms and garlic last night so they would be ready for today (didn’t have much time to put everything together day of). Very tasty. Never cooked a dud recipe from this site and it’s where I find the bulk of my meals. Thank you once again for a tasty dish!

This soup is SO good! I’ve made it twice and loved it both times. I soaked some dried shiitake mushrooms for about an hour and added them and the soaking water to the regular ingredients.

I had dried mushrooms that I wanted to use up, they worked great. Easy, quick & delicious.

Just made this! It was delicious, and paired so well with my homemade bread.

Made this tonight after I saw the Instagram post and couldn’t stop thinking about it! So simple and so delicious! I added Trader Joe’s umami seasoning and a bit of Greek yogurt (instead of sour cream) on top. The perfect soup for a rainy, chilly day.

In reply to Carly F. any of them would work! It's really about browning the flour, not necessarily the milk solids in the butter, so you'll still be looking out for that browning effect!

Looks amazing! For the dairy free version, will the coconut oil turn a golden brown as well? Any cues to watch for that may be different to the butter version? I also have margarine and some vegan butter to use up… would these work better?

I added the sweet paprika and onion as suggested and my family loved this soup! Will definitely make again.

Looks great! Can I use chicken better than bouillon?

I fell in love with this recipe when you first posted it many years ago–and thanks for posting it again. Folks with questions really should browse the comments as most of what is asked now, has been asked and answered multiple times. The comments are also filled with good tips for substitutions and additions. I always use the BTB Mushroom flavor, add a few Tablespoons of either dry sherry or any white wine (make sure you cook the soup long enough to get rid of the alcohol flavor–should only take a few minutes), and also add a few rehydrated dried shitakes. Other that that, I follow the recipe as written–it never fails!
