Mushroom Bisque Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent.

2. 2

   Cook the Mushrooms

   Add the silver dollar mushrooms to the pot and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are softened and browned.

3. 3

   Add Broth and Seasonings

   Pour in the vegetable broth, and add salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 15 minutes.

4. 4

   Blend the Soup

   Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of it.

5. 5

   Add Cream

   Stir in the heavy cream and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Heat through for an additional 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Serve

   Ladle the bisque into bowls and garnish with a drizzle of cream or a sprinkle of fresh thyme if desired.
