There is a huge variety of soups in the world. One of the most popular kinds is cream soup, a thick soup made with cream or milk. Cream soups can be made from meat as well as vegetables and mushrooms, there are even cream soups made with fruit. Sometimes cream soups are used not as separate dishes, but also as an ingredient for further cooking, for example, as a thick sauce for pasta. These soups can be served hot or cold.

The exact origin of the cream soups is unknown, but it is believed that this method of preparation has been known since ancient times. For example, a chef at the court of the Mongol Emperor Kublai Khan collected recipes for soups in a book back in 1300, among others, a recipe for cream soup was mentioned. Also, variations of Italian and French cream soups have a long history. Campbell, the famous American soup company, introduced its canned mushroom cream soup in 1934. I for one am very glad that someone once came up with such a simple and comforting dish.

One of the most popular options is a mushroom cream soup made with button mushrooms, which we have already prepared. Today we will cook a similar, but slightly different soup. The main difference from the previous version is that this time we’ll be using a mushroom broth as the base. And we will also combine several types of mushrooms in a dish. Dried porcini mushrooms will form the basis of the broth, they will give the dish a very rich taste and aroma. Oyster mushrooms and mushrooms have a slightly different texture and aroma, so the soup will turn out simply delicious. Give it a try, I’m sure you will like it!
