Mushroom soup mashed mushrooms with cream classic

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to cook a classic mushroom soup-puree of champignons with cream? Prepare the products. Buy snow-white medium-sized champignons without stains, damage and the smell of rot. They should not be slippery to the touch. Rinse the mushrooms under running water from the ground. If there is, cut out the damaged places.

2. Step 2:

   

   Spread the washed mushrooms on a towel that will absorb excess moisture. Clean the large mushrooms (it is enough to wash the small ones). Cut them into small cubes. Cut two mushrooms into thin plates. We will need them for decoration.

3. Step 3:

   

   Peel the onion from the husk and finely chop it. So that when slicing onion juice does not irritate the mucous membrane of the eyes so much, moisten the onion and knife with cold water.

4. Step 4:

   

   Melt the butter in a frying pan (you do not need to heat it up too much, it may start to burn), put the mushrooms and onions.

5. Step 5:

   

   Fry everything together with constant stirring over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes. Separately fry the plates of champignons until golden, with which you will decorate the dish before serving.

6. Step 6:

   

   Pour filtered water into a saucepan, put on fire and bring to a boil. The specified amount of water can be increased or decreased at will. It all depends on whether you want to get a thick or more liquid soup. Be sure to take high-quality filtered or bottled water, as tap water can give the dish an unpleasant characteristic taste. Put the pan on the fire.

8. Step 7:

   

   When the water in the pan boils, pour in the heavy cream (20%) and soy sauce. Cream can be taken of any fat content. But remember that the higher the fat content of the product, the higher the calorie content of the dish.

9. Step 8:

   

   Stirring, bring the water and cream to a boil again.
