This is a really good soup that my friend John made for me a long time ago and it's wonderful. I think that he got it originally from Martha Stewart and tweaked it. So good!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup minced yellow onions
stick unsalted butter
6 tablespoons flour
12 cups chicken stock (box swanson’s)
2 sprigs parsley
1 bay leaf
2 or 3 pinches of thyme
3 pounds mushrooms (shitake, portobello, button, wild – general)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 lemon (put in chicken stock)
4 egg yolks
1 cup heavy cream
parsley to garnish
Directions:
1. In a big stock pot: Sautee onion in 1/2 stick of butter. While doing this throw in flour to make paste then add the chicken stock. Throw in the parsley, bay leaf and thyme. Simmer 20 - 30 minutes.
2. In a separate pan add the rest of the butter, all of the mushrooms and 1/2 of the lemon juice and sprinkle with salt. Throw into the soup and simmer 5 minutes.
3. Beat together the egg yolks and cream then TEMPER. (Otherwise you will scramble the eggs.) Garnish with parsley and add salt and pepper to taste.
