Description

Smooth, velvety cream of champignon soup with rich mushroom flavor — a French classic

  1. Finely chop onion, slice champignons thinly (reserve a few nice slices for garnish)
  2. Melt butter in a pot over medium heat
  3. Sauté onion until translucent, about 2-3 minutes, do not let it brown
  4. Add champignons, cook for 7-8 minutes until mushrooms release juice and shrink in volume
  5. Add water, bring to a boil, cook for 10 minutes
  6. Remove from heat, blend with an immersion blender until perfectly smooth
  7. Return to low heat, pour in cream, heat for 2-3 minutes (do not boil, or cream will curdle)
  8. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg, stir well
  9. For garnish, quickly sear the reserved mushroom slices in a dry pan and place on top
