Yum! I loved this recipe! I'm not a huge mushroom fan but my husband is so I thought I'd try it for him. I didn't put a full pound of cremini in although it would be fine for mushroom lovers. I put a little less carrot and celery (about a cup each) because I didn't have much on hand and thought it was plenty. I also left out the turnip and garnish. Otherwise followed the recipe and thought it was awesome!
very tasty soup....will make again....did prep work different though
Excellent Full of flavor and quick to make (for a soup). I omitted the turnips and the porcini mushrooms. delicious! Pros: quick
Delicious winter soup Very tasty my husband loved it! One full serving is 5 points when following Weight Watchers. Eating healthy soups contributed to my 16 lb weight loss. Pros: Hearty and healthy
YUM-E! Good soup! Always looking for a healthy hearty soup. Love homemade soups. This one is a keeper. My husband loved it and he does love mushrooms. I followed the recipe but did add extra mushrooms and little more broth(I usually add more ingred. in than called for-so needed more broth). I didn't add the dry mushrooms just becuz we don't care for them much. Just added more fresh ones. I did stay away from the turnip too. Didn't have any good ones at my store. Whenever I make anything with Beef or Beef broth and it calls for wine/I usually use dry sherry. It pairs well with the beef flavor(like french onion soup). I am attn. a pix for my soup pot-we had plenty for leftovers.
The scent of this is heavenly. There's a wonderful layering of flavors. The perfect thing to have on a cold windy day though it does take time to prepare and cook. Give yourself a little extra time as you sort through this recipe for the first attempt. But it is well worth doing right.
Could be improved If you like turnips you'll probably really like this. I had turnips for the first time (they taste like mild radishes) and felt that flavor overwhelmed everything else. This would probably be good without it.
Absolutely delicious! I used Portobello mushrooms and added some bones from my Thanksgiving prime rib. VERY rich and hearty! I will definitely make this again!
