Mushroom Soup
Description
This elegant and whimsical soup is a modern take on a classic mushroom soup, transforming a rustic, earthy dish into a sophisticated and visually stunning culinary experience. The name "cappuccino" refers to its presentation: a silky, intensely flavored mushroom soup base topped with a light, frothy foam, mimicking the beloved coffee drink. It's a perfect starter for a dinner party, offering both comfort and a touch of theatrical flair.
Ingredients:
Instructions
-
Soak the dried mushroom in hot water for about 40 minutes. Weight them down in a bowl using a plate so they dont float.
-
Slice the fresh mushrooms as well as the dried mushrooms. Set aside.
-
Reserve the stock from soaking the mushrooms. About 1 ½ cups.
-
Melt the butter in a skillet with the olive oil.
-
Add the onions and garlic and saute till softened.
-
Add the thyme. Stir.
-
Add the fresh mushrooms. Saute and cook till moisture is released.
-
At this point, add the ‘rehydrated’ dry mushrooms and cook shortly.
-
Add the stock from soaking the dry mushroom and simmer, covered for 15 minutes.
-
Add water if needed.
-
Add the vegetable/mushroom seasoning stock and simmer, covered another 15 minutes. ( Careful not to overdo it, seasoning contains salt).
-
Remove from stove. Add the Mascarpone cheese and stir.

-
I find adding a knob of cold butter towards end of blending helps to develop foam.
-
Serve hot with tiny amounts of the following to season the top of each foamy cup: lemon zest, lemon juice, pepper, salt, olive oil OR If your lucky enough to have it – a few drops of pure Truffle oil.
-
To be swirled just prior to devouring!!
Note
- Please note the white truffle oil is usually not truffle oil a tall. It is a synthetic essence which is no where near real truffle oil. Use only pure truffle oil if you have it. It can be hard to obtain.
- Reduce the amount of dried mushrooms if you want a less intense flavor.
