Steps:
- Set a large saucepan or medium soup pot over medium heat. Add the olive oil. When hot, add the onions, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 8 minutes. Add dried thyme (if using fresh, wait until you add the broth to add the fresh thyme), 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes.
- Slowly drizzle in the vegetable broth, stirring to lift the brown bits. Add the potatoes, mushrooms, and if using fresh thyme, add it now. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Remove soup from heat and remove the lid. Let cool a bit. If you used fresh thyme, remove the stems. Remove 4 cups of soup from the pot (I ladle it into a large 4-cup liquid measuring cup). Pour the 4 cups of soup into the pitcher of a blender (or you can puree it with an immersion blender).
- Return pureed soup to the pot and stir to combine. Add soymilk. Return to a simmer. Stir in red wine vinegar. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Ladle into soup bowls and garnish with parsley, oyster crackers, and/or sliced button mushrooms if desired.

Tips:
- Use fresh mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms have a more intense flavor than canned or dried mushrooms. If you can, use a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the soup. Sautéing the mushrooms in butter or oil will help to bring out their flavor and give the soup a richer taste.
- Use a good quality chicken or vegetable stock. The stock is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality stock. If you can, make your own stock, but if you're short on time, you can use a store-bought stock.
- Don't overcook the soup. Cream of mushroom soup should be thick and creamy, but it shouldn't be overcooked. Overcooked soup will lose its flavor and become watery.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a splash of white wine or sherry to the soup for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Cream of mushroom soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like your soup thick or thin, creamy or chunky, there is a cream of mushroom soup recipe out there for you.
