Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 carrot, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
- 1/4 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
- 1 cup baby portobello mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 cup chopped fresh shiitake mushrooms
- 3 teaspoons beef bouillon granules
- 2 teaspoons chicken stock
- 2 quarts water
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by chopping the carrot, onion, ginger, garlic, and celery. Slice the baby portobello mushrooms and set aside some for later.
- In a large saucepan or stockpot, combine all chopped vegetables with chicken stock, beef bouillon granules, and water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, cover and reduce heat to medium. Let simmer for 45 minutes to develop flavor.
- Optional: For a creamier texture, use an immersion blender or regular blender to blend until smooth; otherwise, skip this step for a chunky soup.
- While the soup simmers, slice any reserved mushrooms and place them in another pot. After 45 minutes of cooking, strain the soup into the pot with the raw mushrooms.
- Serve hot in small bowls garnished with freshly chopped chives.
