Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/2 cup chopped sweet onions
8 medium portobello mushrooms
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1/4 cup white wine
8 cups chicken stock
1 1/4 cups white roux (1 stick of butter and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour; cook slowly over low heat)
1 quart heavy cream
Salt and pepper
Croutons, sour cream, and sliced chives, for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine 1/4 cup of olive oil and 3 drops of liquid smoke. Toss 4 of the Portobello mushrooms in oil mixture and roast them in the oven for approximately 45 minutes. Chop mushrooms into cubes. In a large pot, saute the onions in olive oil. Once onions are sauteed, add uncooked portobello mushrooms and garlic. After mushrooms and garlic are cooked add roasted mushrooms, white wine and chicken broth and allow to simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and place mixture in blender. Add roux to pot. Blend in heavy cream. Place mixture back in pot on stove and add roux. Let simmer for 20 minutes. Garnish with croutons, sour cream and sliced chives.

delicious!

My husband loves this soup. I have made this several times. I even have a pot of it simmering on my stove now. I followed... the recipe the first time I made it. Now I add more mushrooms and I even slice a bit more up and leave them whole. Thanks Paula for a great and easy recipe. Jen D Worcester,Ma Read more

Not my favorite

I found this soup a little bland, think it needs more seasoning.

Delicious! I generally have to have meat, but this was great. I left 3 of the caps from the oven out of the blender. Then... cubed them. Gives you something to chew.Read more

Loved this recipe as is but next time might make with half & Half b/c heavy cream is expensive and fattening :)
