Comforting Slow Cooker Wild Mushroom Soup Recipe
To make this wild mushroom soup, gather your ingredients first. You will need:
- 1 pound mixed wild mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, oyster), cleaned and sliced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 medium carrots, diced
- 3 celery stalks, diced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Start by placing all the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery into the slow cooker. This mix brings great flavor.
Next, pour in the vegetable broth. Add the soy sauce, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf. Stir all the ingredients well. This step blends the flavors beautifully.
Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The soup is ready when the vegetables are tender, and the mushrooms give off their rich taste.
After cooking, remove the bay leaf. You can use an immersion blender to make the soup smooth or leave it chunky if you like more texture. Both ways are delicious!
Now, stir in the heavy cream or coconut cream. This gives the soup a rich and creamy feel. Season it with salt and black pepper to your taste.
Lastly, let the soup warm for another 10-15 minutes. This step helps meld the flavors together. When ready, ladle the soup into bowls and finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Enjoy this comforting dish!
