Organic Mushrooms and Stock make Soup

Simmering.....

26,731 days on  the planet....


We went to the local farmers market and purchased fresh mushrooms. These included Maitake mushrooms. "These have been shown to suppress the growth of breast cancer cells."

I purchased with the express intent to make a wonderful soup based upon mushrooms, chicken stock and spices......The weather cooperated because it was a we, cool day.

I sauteed the mushrooms in a little olive oil in a cast iron skillet. I did it in two groups. I transferred to a copper core AllClad skillet when they were sufficiently cooked, just for temporary holding. I'll tell you, when I pulled the lid off the odor was absolutely heavenly.  While this was going on I was simmering the chicken stock with a little curled parsley added.

Once the mushrooms were done I added them to the stock and continued to simmer for a few minutes longer.....After cooling we transferred to a container for the refrigerator to age for a few days....

We'll eat the soup "as is" but we'll also make a batch with cream.......
