Steps:
- For the Cèpe Mushroom Powder:
- Coarsely chop the dried mushrooms or cut them into pieces with scissors. Working in batches, grind them to a fine powder in the spice mill. [Makes 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) powder.]
- For the soup:

- At serving time, in heavy-duty saucepan, combine the infused cream, salt, and stock and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat and taste for seasoning.
- Serve in the warmed soup bowls, garnished with chives and a drizzle of oil.
- Do Ahead
- The soup can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
- Variations:
- Add sliced raw domestic or wild mushrooms to the soup and cook for several minutes; add grilled, sliced fresh cèpes or domestic mushrooms; add truffle matchsticks at serving time.

Tips:
- Use fresh ceps: Fresh ceps have a more intense flavor than dried ceps. If you can't find fresh ceps, you can use dried ceps, but you will need to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using.
- Clean the ceps thoroughly: Ceps can be quite dirty, so it's important to clean them thoroughly before using. Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris from the mushrooms.
- Slice the ceps thinly: Slicing the ceps thinly will help them to cook evenly.
- Use a good quality stock: The stock you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the soup. Use a good quality chicken or vegetable stock, or make your own.
- Don't overcook the ceps: Ceps are delicate mushrooms, so it's important not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is cooked, season it to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or nutmeg.
Conclusion:
Cep mushroom soup is a delicious and flavorful soup that can be enjoyed as a starter or main course. It's a great way to use up fresh ceps, and it's also a good source of nutrients. The soup is easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and flavorful soup, give cep mushroom soup a try.
