The end of summer - autumn is the time for mushrooms. "Grandmothers" with them appear at the entrances to the subway, stand along the highways, form spontaneous markets. And even if you don’t trust the sellers (you never know where they collected, whether they are well versed in “silent hunting”, whether they accidentally picked up the toadstools …), the mushroom season is still attractive. You begin to pay attention to dried and canned mushrooms, which are sold in stores. Even all-season champignons seem more attractive than usual. Yes, and the unkind weather on the street whispers: "Why don't you, my friend, cook mushroom soup, with potatoes, with cereals or pasta, hot and fragrant?" And most often you answer yourself: "Of course, cook!"

Cep mushrooms are our choice

The king of all mushrooms, boletus, fortunately, is sold in dried form in supermarkets. So do not believe the collectors - go to the store. To cook mushroom soup with potatoes from dried mushrooms, they will have to be soaked in cold water overnight. It will be enough 200 g per one and a half liters of water. Then the washed mushrooms are cut and boiled until final readiness. At this time, finely chopped onion is roasted in melted butter. In readybouillon rush 5 chopped potatoes; when they are almost cooked, onion frying is added. Before removing, the mushroom soup with potatoes is s alted, and served with sour cream and chopped parsley and dill.

Mushroom puree soup

For him, a pound of peeled potatoes is first boiled. Half a liter of broth is poured into a saucepan, and the tubers are mashed. Any mushrooms that are at your disposal (three hundred grams) are washed. If necessary, they are peeled, cut and fried together with onions, preferably in butter. Pieces of chicken breast (about 300 g) are browned separately. Half a liter of low-fat cream or milk is heated. Two finely chopped processed cheeses are lowered into the pan. Heating continues until the cheese is completely dissolved. You have to stir constantly! When the mixture becomes homogeneous, it is poured into the broth, mashed potatoes, fried mushrooms and onions and fillet pieces are also laid there. When it boils, mushroom soup with potatoes is removed from the heat. It should be served with herbs, croutons and - if desired - with sour cream.

Country Mushroom Soup

Of course, in any village, both in the season of "quiet hunting" and in winter, having dried prey, they always cooked their own mushroom soup with potatoes. The recipe that we want to offer also includes pearl barley. Suppose you have 100 g of dried mushrooms in your pantry. They need to be washed and soaked for a couple of hours. When they swell, the water in which they were soaked is filtered and poured into the pan. Chicken broth is also added there (total volumeliquids - 3 liters). Chopped mushrooms and half a glass of washed barley are lowered into a boiling s alted base. When the cereal is almost cooked, potatoes are introduced into cubes (3-4 pieces). While the tubers are boiling, a roast of onions and carrots is being prepared. It is added a couple of minutes before readiness. Already after removing from heat, greens (parsley, onion, dill) are put into the pan, and mushroom soup with potatoes is left for 10 minutes to infuse.

American mushroom cream soup

Recipe for those who prefer these mushrooms. We take 800 grams of champignons, finely chop and send to a saucepan with butter, along with three chopped onions and a stalk of celery. It is not necessary to simmer until the end, only until soft, 3-4 minutes. After the specified time, broth (usually chicken, but also from another bird, and beef) is poured into the saucepan in the amount of one liter. When it boils, cook for 20 minutes. As soon as it cools down, it is passed through a blender, s alted, flavored with ground nutmeg and black pepper, after which 2 tablespoons of white vermouth are poured into the resulting mushroom puree soup with potatoes, and everything is heated together (you can’t boil!) You need to eat immediately, with toasted croutons. And at the same time, you must definitely feel like a real American!
