Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth. Slice the mushrooms, onion, carrot, and celery. Mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, carrot, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Mushrooms

    Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and have released their moisture.

  2. 4

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Pour in the vegetable broth and add salt, black pepper, thyme, and the bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  3. 5

    Simmer the Soup

    Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  4. 6

    Blend the Soup

    Remove the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. You can also transfer it to a blender in batches.

  5. 7

    Add Cream

    Stir in the heavy cream and heat through. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Serving

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot.
