My sister-in-law telephoned me looking for a good cream of mushroom soup recipe. I gave her this hearty one. It gets its boost from a splash of hot pepper sauce. —Julia Thornely, Layton, Utah
Ingredients:
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, chopped
1/4 cup each chopped onion, celery and carrot
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
5-1/2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
pinch dried tarragon
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
3 cups half-and-half cream
2-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven, saute the mushrooms, onion, celery and carrot in butter until tender. Stir in flour until blended. Gradually add the broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
2. Stir in the cream, chicken, parsley, lemon juice and salt; heat through (do not boil). Yield: 11 servings (2-3/4 quarts).
