Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup baby bella or white mushrooms, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 0.75 cup whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the finely chopped mushrooms to the saucepan and sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and have released their juices.
Step 3
Sprinkle in the all-purpose flour and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to create a paste (roux). This will help thicken the mixture.
Step 4
Slowly pour in the chicken or vegetable stock while whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue whisking until the mixture begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
Step 5
Whisk in the whole milk and simmer the mixture over low heat, stirring frequently, until thickened to a condensed soup consistency, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 6
Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Step 7
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the soup to cool slightly. The mixture will further thicken as it cools.
Step 8
Use immediately in recipes calling for condensed cream of mushroom soup or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
