What are some good soup recipes?
Mushroom Soup: (about 2 quarts) 1/2 ounce dried wild mushrooms, minced 1/2 cup water 1/2 cup dry white wine 4 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 large white onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 16 ounces white mushrooms, chopped 1 small sprig rosemary (optional) 5 cups chicken or vegetable stock 1-2 teaspoons salt 1-4 teaspoons black pepper Heat the water and wine to boiling and add the dried wild mushrooms. Let sit for about 20 minutes to half an hour while working with the other ingredients. Cut the onion into a medium dice and gently fry it in the butter over medium heat in a large heavy pot. Add the garlic and let it sweat in the butter for about 8 minutes. Keep the heat low so nothing browns. Add the white mushrooms and stir until coated with butter and onion. Drain the wild mushrooms, reserving their steeping liquid. Add to the pot and sweat the onions and mushrooms together for another ten minutes. Add the steeping liquid, rosemary, and chicken stock and bring to a low simmer. Simm
