Pro tips for quick mushroom soup. 1. Let the mixture cool slightly, then use a hand blender to blend it until smooth. We're using a hand blender because of the large amount of liquid, but you could use a mixer if you prefer. 2. Low-fat milk can help to thicken mushroom soup without making it too heavy. This is because low-fat milk contains more lactose than whole milk. Lactose is a type of sugar that can help to thicken liquids. 1 cup of milk provides 70% of the Recommended Daily Allowance of Calcium. 3. Mushrooms have a unique and earthy flavor that is perfect for soups. Mushrooms have a soft and slightly chewy texture that adds to the body of the soup.

making mushroom soup

  1. Heat 2 tsp low-fat butter in a deep non-stick pan. Butter adds a rich and creamy flavor to mushroom soup. This complements well with the earthy flavor of the mushrooms. Butter helps to thicken and smooth out the soup, giving it a velvety texture. Recent research shows that small amounts of butter has positive effects on heart health. So diabetics too can have a small quantity of butter and balance it with other types of fats they consume. A tbsp. of butter fulfils 8% of your day's requirement of vitamin A.
  2. Add 1/4 cup chopped onions. Onions release a wonderful aroma when cooked, which makes the mushroom soup more inviting. The quercetin in Onions promotes production of HDL (good cholesterol) and lowers total cholesterol in the body. The sulphur in onions act as a blood thinner and prevents blood clotting too.   
  3. Add 2 cups chopped mushrooms (khumbh). Mushrooms have a unique and earthy flavor that is perfect for soups. Mushrooms have a soft and slightly chewy texture that adds to the body of the soup.
  4. Sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
  5. Add 3 cups of vegetable stock or  hot water. For better taste use vegetable stock or if in hurry then use stock cubes. Homemade vegetable stock has a neutral flavour and desirable consistency that make it very versatile. It adds exciting flavours and aroma to the dish it is added to.
  6. Mix well.
  7. Cook on a medium flame for 5 to 6 minutes or till the mushrooms get cooked.
  8. Let the mixture cool slightly, then use a hand blender to blend it until smooth. We're using a hand blender because of the large amount of liquid, but you could use a mixer if you prefer.  
  9. Blend  to a smooth purée.
  10. Add salt to taste. We added 1/2 tsp salt. Salt brings out natural flavours and makes foods more palatable. Too much of it can ruin the food and your health. So, use only the right amount.
  11. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  12. Add 1/4 cup low-fat milk , 99.7% fat-free. Low-fat milk can help to thicken mushroom soup without making it too heavy. This is because low-fat milk contains more lactose than whole milk. Lactose is a type of sugar that can help to thicken liquids. 1 cup of milk provides 70% of the Recommended Daily Allowance of Calcium. Milk promotes strong bones.
  13. Mix well.
  14. Bring to a boil.
  15. Serve mushroom soup | quick mushroom soup | healthy Indian mushroom soup | hot with toasted multigrain bread.

Method is good, seasoning needed help. I added about 3 teaspoons of chicken soup base, 1/4 teaspoon of thyme, and a bay leaf. With those additions, I recommend it.
