Notes

  • I have used button mushrooms to make this soup. You can use any variety of brown or wild mushrooms to make this soup. 
  • While sauteeing, no need to brown the onion or garlic. A quick sauteeing is fine to infuse the flavor into the oil. 
  • Adjust the quantity of liquid according to how thick or thin you like soup.
