Soup Base

Method

Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Mushrooms

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Then, add the chopped wild mushrooms and cook for about 8-10 minutes until they release their moisture and reduce in size.

  3. 3

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Pour in the vegetable broth, then add the thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes.

Finishing Touches

  1. 4

    Blend the Soup

    Remove the bay leaf from the soup. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup and leave the rest as is.

  2. 5

    Add Cream and Lemon Juice

    Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice, and heat the soup gently over low heat for an additional 5 minutes. Do not bring to a boil.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
