Mushroom soup recipe | cream of mushroom soup

Mushroom Soup | Cream of Mushroom Soup, i have tried few times but somehow didn’t get a perfect taste of the soup every time. Last month when i was working on Soups and salads assignment for Kungumam Thozi Magazine, i tried this again and got the taste perfect. The book got published on Dec.1 and those who in Tamil nadu can get it in shops. I will be posting some soups and salad recipes here from that book every week. Most of the Indian style soups are a super hit at my home and we often include Soups and Salads in my cooking. Last 2 months as Suresh is preparing for the Full marathon, i am so particular to include healthy food into his diet. So made a protein packed salad for him everyday along with a soup and a complete balanced diet. Last week he successfully completed his marathon and still now i am working on his diet. Post recovery is also more important.
We are travelling to India for vacation and will be back on first week of next month. Till then i will be posting recipes but can’t be so active in responding mails, and so committed to weekend posts too. Stay tuned for more interesting recipes.

Notes:

  1. Do not boil the soup for a long, it may curdle.
  2. Since we are adding milk ,add salt and pepper in the last.
  3. Always use fresh mushrooms. Old mushrooms will change the colour of the soup too black
