  • Cover the dried porcini with boiling water and let them soak for 10–15 minutes. Strain the mushrooms through a sieve, saving the soaking liquid. Cut the porcini into small, rough pieces. Rinse the fresh button mushrooms, pat them dry, and slice them. Peel and rinse the onion and carrot. Dice the onion small and grate the carrot on the coarse holes of a box grater. Peel the garlic and mince it however you like. Turn on the slow cooker and set it to the "Bake" or "Sauté" mode (depending on your model). Drop a pat of butter into the bottom of the bowl. Once it melts, add the diced onion and grated carrot. Sauté for 5 minutes, until golden. Add the sliced button mushrooms and cook with the vegetables for 5–7 minutes, until softened. Stir in the soaked porcini and cook in the same mode for another 4 minutes. Add the minced garlic, stir, and cook 1 minute more. Pour in the plain water and switch the cooker to "Cook" or "Stew." Add the milk and the reserved porcini soaking liquid. Bring the soup to a boil, cover, and cook for about 7–10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off the cooker and let the soup cool a little. Transfer it to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Pour the puréed soup back into the bowl and set the cooker to "Cook." Simmer for another 5 minutes. Grate the hard cheese on the fine holes of a grater and stir it in. Mix well and turn off the cooker. Let the soup rest for a few minutes, then ladle it into bowls. Garnish with a few sautéed mushroom slices and chopped parsley. Serve with breadsticks.
  • Enjoy!
