Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Mushrooms

    Rinse the mushrooms under cold water and slice them thinly.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Finely chop the onion, garlic, celery, and carrot.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, celery, and carrot. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

  2. 4

    Add Mushrooms

    Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and continue to cook for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are tender.

  3. 5

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Pour in the vegetable broth, then add thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes.

  4. 6

    Blend the Soup

    Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender in batches. Be careful with the hot liquid.

  5. 7

    Add Cream

    Stir in the heavy cream and heat through for an additional 5 minutes, but do not boil.

Serving

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve with slices of crusty bread on the side.
