Easy Mushroom Bisque Recipe

This mushroom bisque features a blend of sautéed mushrooms and aromatics, simmered in broth and finished with cream for a luxurious texture. The recipe takes about 50 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

• 1 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced (such as cremini or button)
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)
• 1 teaspoon thyme or rosemary (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Prep the Ingredients: Clean and slice the mushrooms, chop the onion, and mince the garlic.
2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Cook the Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook until they release their moisture and become tender, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Add Broth and Wine: Pour in the broth and white wine, if using. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
5. Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. For a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup and leave the rest as is.
6. Add Cream: Stir in the heavy cream and heat gently over low heat without boiling. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs, if desired.
7. Serve: Ladle the bisque into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread on the side.
