Servings: 6

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

4 cups chicken stock (or you could use mushroom or vegetable stock)

creme fraiche (for garnish)

8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced

2 tablespoons flour

1 teaspoon dried thyme (or fresh)

1 clove garlic, minced

1/4 cup heavy cream or half and half (used a combo of each)

kosher salt & pepper

3 smalls shallots, sliced thin

1 tablespoon tomato paste

Equipment:

paper towels

dutch oven

immersion blender

blender

pot

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. To make crispy shallots, cook in a thin layer of olive oil until golden (not too high of a heat, or they can easily burn). Set aside, on a paper towel.
  2. For the soup:
  3. In a Dutch Oven, heat a little bit of olive oil and butter-- just enough for a thin coating. Cook the mushrooms for about 3-5 minutes, until golden. Set aside.
  4. Using the same pot, add a little more olive oil and saute the sliced shallots until tender.
  5. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute.
  6. Season with a little kosher salt, pepper and dried thyme.
  7. Add the flour, stir and cook for about one minute.
  8. Return the mushrooms to the cooked shallots, add tomato paste and about 1 cup of the chicken stock. Stir to combine.
  9. All the remaining chicken stock and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  10. Puree the soup in batches, carefully, in a blender. I prefer to use an immersion blender right into the pot, which is so much simpler!
  11. Puree to your liking-- I leave small chunks of mushroom.
  12. Add the heavy cream/half & half.
  13. Serve with a dollop of creme fraiche and the crispy shallots on top.
