Mushroom Cappuccino Soup

This is a recipe that I got from our cruise we went on in December. It was at there steakhouse and they had a cooking demonstration - so you know I was there - yummy!



Ingredients:

Thinly sliced assorted Mushrooms                                      1 lb
Onion                                                                                        5 tbsp
Garlic                                                                                        1 clove chopped
Butter Clarified                                                                       2 ounces
Chicken stock                                                                          2 pints
Cream                                                                                       1 pint
Truffle oil                                                                                  few drops
Chopped parsley                                                                      1 tsp
Salt                                                                                             to taste
White pepper                                                                            to taste


Directions:


Saute onions and garlic in butter, add assorted mushrooms.
Add stock and simmer. Season with salt and pepper.
When mushrooms are cooked blend in a blender and sieve through a chinois.
Return the puree to the pan and add cream and few drops of truffle oil.
Adjust the seasoning and consistency. Serve hot.

Serves 4

This was a beautifully flavored soup. I loved it. If you love mushrooms like I do you will greatly enjoy this soup. The one they made had 5 different mushrooms, shiitake, portabello, button, crimi, and oyster.  They said to use a variety of different mushrooms for better flavor.
