ROASTED MUSHROOM, ONION, AND GARLIC SOUP

Roasted Mushroom, Onion, and Garlic Soup image

A tasty mushroom soup made with no milk or cream. White beans are used to thicken, and roasting mushrooms, onions, and garlic in the oven add great flavor. It's a flexible recipe. You can use any combination of mushrooms that you'd like, and any kind of broth that you'd like. This recipe calls for pureeing the onions, garlic and a small amount of the mushrooms, leaving most of the mushroom quarters for the soup, but you can puree as many of the mushrooms as you'd like. I've tried it as written, and also with all of it pureed. I actually like it best all pureed - it's like a more traditional mushroom soup. Adapted from a recipe found online - the original also called for 3 cans of beans, half of which were pureed, and half were left whole for the soup.

Roast the vegetables for 20-30 minutes - stirring every 8 minutes and remove and set aside any pieces that are browning nicely (before they burn).

When I was a young girl, I would watch my mother and grandmother cook. My grandmother especially made a soup that we called "poor man soup". After all these years, I totally love making soup...it is such a comfort food for me.

Ingredients

6 medium sweet onions
1 garlic bulb, whole
3 c reduced sodium chicken broth, divided
1/2 c buttermilk
1 Tbsp minced fresh thyme or 1 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp coursely ground pepper
1/2 c shredded swiss cheese

Steps:

1. Place the unpeeled onions and garlic bulb in a 15in. x 10in. x 1in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Spritz with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 450 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until tender.

3. Add the buttermilk, thyme, pepper and remaining broth, heat through. Garnish with cheese.
4. Makes 2 quarts

Tips:

To achieve a deeper caramelization and a more intense flavor, roast the onions and garlic at a higher temperature (425°F) for a shorter period of time (20-25 minutes).
If you prefer a sweeter soup, add a pinch of sugar or a tablespoon of honey while caramelizing the onions and garlic.
For a creamier soup, blend the roasted onions and garlic with some of the cooking liquid and then stir it back into the pot.
If you want a soup with a bit of a kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a teaspoon of paprika while sautéing the aromatics.
To make the soup more filling, add some cooked protein such as shredded chicken, lentils, or beans.
Serve the soup with a crusty baguette, croutons, or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese for an extra touch of flavor.
