Cream of Morel Mushroom Soup
1 lb fresh morels, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup diced celery
1 cup diced onion
1 teas. black pepper or to taste
1 T. salt
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup flour
2 T. olive oil
2 chicken bouillon cubes
Cook onions and the celery in the olive oil.
Stir often till soft. Add Morel mushrooms and cook about 6 to 7 minutes. Add butter and slowly stir in the flour. Now add the chicken stock, salt and pepper, and bouillon cubes. Bring to a low boil, , reduce to a simmer and cook 10 to 15 minutes. Add Heavy cream and continue to cook another 10 minutes.
For a thicker creamier soup, you may need to add more flour to thicken, and possibly less chicken stock, and/or heavy cream.
Just add or subtract to get the desired consistency.
We also added a Tablespoon of Natures Seasonings.
We also found the more celery and onion, the better!!
Enjoy!
