FAVORITE MARVELOUS MUSHROOM SOUP
Meet the Cook: Soup is tops on the list of things I love to cook. I've used this one as the beginning course to a meal...and as a Sunday supper with hot rolls and butter. When we had a small restaurant in Arizona, I made my mushroom soup every day. We never had any left over. It got raves at a deli I worked at, too. I never cooked very much until my husband and I were married, 48 years ago. We're the parents of three grown sons and the grandparents of 12. -Beverly Rafferty, Winston, Oregon

Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your soup more depth of flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the soup. This will help to bring out their flavor and give them a slightly caramelized texture.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. If you don't have any vegetable broth on hand, you can use water, but your soup will be less flavorful.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste until the soup is flavorful and balanced.
- Garnish the soup with fresh herbs or croutons. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your soup.
Conclusion:
Mushroom soup is a delicious, comforting, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to use up leftover mushrooms, and it's also a good source of vitamins and minerals. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make a delicious pot of mushroom soup that your family and friends will love.
