Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp vegan butter

• 1/2 sweet onion diced

• 2 cloves of garlic, minced

• 4 oz crimini mushrooms 

• 16 oz white button mushrooms

• 1/2 oz dried porcini mushrooms

• 3.5 oz dry white wine

• 20 oz vegetable or mushroom stock

• 1 tbsp chopped rosemary

• 1 tbsp chopped thyme

• 11 oz silken tofu (drained)

• A generous pinch each of salt and pepper

Toppings:

• Extra chopped herbs

• 2 oz crimini mushrooms

• 
  

In a large pot, melt the vegan butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for approximately 3 minutes until it softens. Then add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, watching so that the garlic does not burn. 

Add 4 oz of crimini mushrooms and all the white button mushrooms, stirring to coat them in the butter. Cook for an additional 6 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to soften and release their juices. 

Add the white wine to the pan, stirring and scraping any bits that may have adhered to the pan. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, until most of the wine has evaporated. 

Add the chopped rosemary, thyme, and dried porcini mushrooms, stock, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, making sure the dried porcini mushrooms have rehydrated thoroughly.

Add the drained silken tofu and blend with an immersion blender. Blend until the soup is completely smooth and creamy. Add more salt and pepper to your preference.  

Slice the remaining 2 oz of crimini mushrooms and sauté in a bit of vegan butter until golden brown.  Season with salt and pepper, set aside. 

Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with the sautéed cremini mushrooms and fresh, chopped herbs.  Serve with your favorite loaf of Bread and Flours bread!
