Equipment

  • 1 Large soup pot or Dutch oven
  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 spoon Ladle
  • 1 immersion blender
  • 1 Sharp Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Yellow onion
  • 1 lb Mushrooms Preferably Chantrelles
  • 1 lrg Carrot
  • 8 Med Yukon Gold Potatoes
  • 8-10 cups Chicken Broth
  • ½ cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tablespoon Dill chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Sauté the aromatics
    Cook onions and garlic in butter until soft and fragrant. Add in the chopped carrots as well and saute until soft.
  • Step 2: Add the mushrooms
    Sauté until tender and lightly golden to bring out their natural richness.
  • Step 3: Pour in the broth
    Simmer to develop flavor and create the soup base. Because this is a mushroom soup without flour, the creaminess comes naturally from the mushrooms and optional blending — no roux required.
  • Step 4: Add the potatoes
    Peel and chop your potatoes into 1-inch cubes and add into your soup.
  • Step 5: Add the cream and herbs
    Stir in cream at the end for that signature silky finish and garnish with fresh chopped dill. Do a taste test and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
