Roasted Onion Mushroom Soup Recipes

ROASTED MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix the mushrooms, 1 minced clove garlic, rosemary, and salt together in a bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the mushroom mixture, and toss to coat evenly; transfer to a baking sheet.
• Roast the mushrooms in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir the onions, 2 minced cloves garlic, and the thyme into the melted butter; cook and stir until the onions are completely soft, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Combine the mushroom mixture and the onion mixture in the bowl of a blender or food processor with about half of the heavy cream; blend on low until combined yet slightly chunky. Return the blended mixture to the stockpot. Stir the remaining heavy cream, the chicken broth, milk, and black pepper through the blended mixture; bring the resulting soup to a simmer, and cook until the flavors are thoroughly combined, at least 15 minutes.

• Spread onto another baking sheet.
• Roast the vegetables for 20-30 minutes - stirring every 8 minutes and remove and set aside any pieces that are browning nicely (before they burn).
• In a blender, add 1 cup of broth, 1 can of beans, the onions, garlic, sage leaves, about 1/2 cup mushrooms. Blend until pureed.
• Pour into a pot on the stove, and add the remaining chicken broth, mushroom pieces, and leaves from two remaining thyme stems.

CREAMY MUSHROOM & ROASTED ONION SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Peel one of the onions but leave it whole.
• Rub 1 tablespoon of the oil and a pinch each of the salt and pepper over the onion, then wrap it in foil. Roast the onion until it is softened and lightly caramelized, about 1 hour. Remove and cool.
• Meanwhile, peel and chop the remaining onion.
• Heat a medium, heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped onion, carrot and celery and cook until softened, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Stir in the garlic, shallots and mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Reserve one mushroom to garnish the finished soup.
• Stir in the wine, making sure to scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the fresh thyme and bring the contents to a gentle simmer. Cook until the mushrooms soften, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• Stir in the vegetable stock and continue to simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and purée the soup with an immersion blender, or in batches in a blender. Return the soup to low heat and stir in the cream. Season with a generous teaspoon of salt and a pinch of pepper, or to taste. This makes about 8 cups of soup.
• Chop the roasted onion into pieces no larger than one-quarter inch. Stir the chopped onion into the soup. Check and adjust the seasoning if desired.
• Slice the reserved mushroom into 8 very thin, lengthwise slices. Ladle the soup into warmed bowls. Garnish each portion with a thin shaving of the Parmigiano-Reggiano, one-fourth teaspoon of the chives and a thin slice of mushroom.
• Serve immediately.

BEAUTIFUL BAKED FRENCH ONION AND MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Cut onions in half lengthwise and thinly slice into half moon shapes.
• Pour olive oil into a large pot and heat to one notch over low. Add onions and sprinkle them with salt. Cover and let onions sweat for 15 minutes. Give onions a quick stir, cover and let sweat for another 15 minutes.
• While onions are cooking, thinly slice your mushrooms, mince your garlic and preheat oven to 375°F.
• Get 4 ovenproof bowls and place face-down on the pie crust. Cut 4 large circles out of pie crust, about 1" bigger than the size of your bowl. They do NOT have to be perfect circles - they look more rustic if the edges are jagged.
• When onions are done sweating, uncover, turn heat to medium and brown slightly while stirring frequently for about 10 minutes. Add mushrooms, garlic, sherry, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, beef broth, bay leaf, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, turn down to simmer for ½ hour or more.
• Remove bay leaf. Pour soup evenly into bowls and cover each bowl with a crust. The crust should not be touching the soup. Poke 1 small hole in the middle of each crust. Bake for 12 minutes. Crust should be just golden.
• Remove, and sprinkle each bowl evenly with Swiss cheese. Put back in the oven for about 3 minutes, until cheese has just melted.
• Serve immediately and let your guests cut into the crunchy crust with their spoons and the cheese will melt into the soup.
