Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup
The Classic Kitchen Staple of Cream of Mushroom Soup - a perfect recipe to have on hand and enjoy as a meal or added to other recipes!
Ingredients
Mushroom Base Ingredients
- 2-3 Tbl Butter
- 1-2 Tbl Oil (Avocado or Olive Oil work well)
- 8 Cups Baby Bella Mushrooms (sliced) (*see Notes below)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 Cups Onion (chopped) (about 1 large onion)
Wine Sauce Ingredients
- 1 tsp Garlic (minced) (about 2 garlic cloves)
- 1 Cup White Wine (Sauvignon Blanc works well)
- 1-2 Tbl Worcestershire Sauce (gives the soup some nice umami flavor!)
- 2 Cups Chicken or Vegetable Broth or Stock
Thickening Ingredients
- 1 Cup Half & Half
- 2 Tbl Cornstarch
Seasoning Ingredients
- 1 tsp Salt (to taste)
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Cook the Mushroom Ingredients (Butter, Oil, Mushrooms, Salt & Onions) in a Dutch Oven over medium high heat with the cover on for about 10 min. This will help steam and soften the Mushrooms and Onions.
- Then continue to cook the Mushroom Ingredients over medium high heat uncovered for about 20 min or until the liquid the Mushrooms & Onions released has cooked off and the Mushrooms & Onions are soft and caramelized. Stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
- Stir in the Wine Sauce Ingredients (Garlic, White Wine, Worcestershire Sauce & Chicken or Vegetable Broth/Stock) and cook about 5 min or until the wine has cooked off, stirring to prevent scorching.
- In a small bowl, combine the Thickening Ingredients (Half & Half and Cornstarch) and whisk together to create a slurry.
- Pour the Cornstarch Slurry into the Mushroom & Wine Sauce mixture and cook about 10 min or until the mixture has thickened to desired consistency.
- Add Seasoning Ingredients (Salt & Pepper) to taste and stir until well incorporated.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Wipe your mushrooms clean with a washcloth or paper towel to remove debris and soil prior to slicing (or cooking if using pre-sliced).
- This Recipe makes the equivalent of about 1 large can (22.6 oz) or 2 small cans (10.5 oz) of Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup.
- Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup can store in the refrigerator for about a week.
- This Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup may thicken as it sits or after it is chilled in the refrigerator. Simply mix in more broth or stock at the time of use to achieve the desired thickness for your casserole, baked dish or other recipe (much like you would for the store-bought condensed soups).
This Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup is great to prepare and enjoy immediately as a meal. Or you can store this in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about a week. You can also prepare this Cream of Mushroom Soup ahead a day or two and use for making Green Bean Casserole! Either way, it’s a simply delicious kitchen staple recipe!
