    Amazing

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    OMG! This soup is divine. I sauteed a small diced onion and a garlic clove before adding the mushrooms. Instead of a 1/2... cup of white wine, I used a 1/4 cup of white wine and 1/4 cup of sherry. I can't wait to use the leftover soup on pasta tonight.Read more

    Fabulous & Easy!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made this for the group @ our beach house in Avon, NC for the first time because it was simple and I had a bag of assorted... mushrooms we had taken down. I started out with adding chopped garlic and a shallot to the pan first, then the mushrooms sliced thin. In addition to the white wine I also added sherry (the "real stuff") along w/the cream. Then I used the house blender and did it in batches and placed it back on to heat up and salt & pepper to taste. This was wonderful and all 3 couples raved about it. The guys had the leftovers (not much) for breakfast the next morning - everyone thanks you - Richmond, VARead more

    Perfect appetizer

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I had 8 oz of white mushrooms and 1/2 a vidalia onion I needed to use up and searched for a mushroom recipe and I'm so glad I... chose this one. I also have a food allergic child so I used soy margarine instead of butter and soymilk instead of cream and it was fabulous. I used twice the margarine (I need to get more calories in his diet), half the broth, and all three of my boys and my husband loved it. A side benefit of the soymilk is that it doesn't curdle, so I added it to the blender and it was fine.Read more

    Two easy dinners

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I used baby portabellas and half of the butter, otherwise followed the recipe. It was very tasty and super quick. The next... night I stirred the last cup and a half of soup into a basic risotto and it was fabulous! Recieved rave reviews on both the soup and risotto. Next time fried shallots would be a great topper for both. Read more

    basic

    This soup NEEDS seasonings. You MUST put it in a blender to have a silky soup. Use real cream and sherry instead of... wine;hope this helps!.Read more

    Excellent!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made this soup the other night and loved it - even with a few changes ... I didn't have white wine, so I used red (a little... hesitantly...) and it was just fine. I did add some shallots to the mushrooms just before they were browned, and I added some chopped garlic and a little sherry at the end. Such a great soup! Not too heavy, but just the right creamy consistency.Read more
