Red Lobster Wild Mushroom Soup image

This recipe is from a website called Copycat Recipes. I tried this earlier this year and it is fantastic. My husband and I love mushrooms and this hits the spot. It makes a lot so we froze some and it was even better coming from the freezer.

Yield 15-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 ounces portabella mushrooms
6 ounces shiitake mushrooms
8 ounces button mushrooms
1 cup butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1 cup diced tomato
1 cup diced yellow onion
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
2 small bay leaves
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cooking sherry
2 quarts beef stock
1 1/4 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • Beef stock: Place 2 quarts water and 2 tablespoons beef-stock base in a saucepot and simmer until beef-stock base has dissolved. Remove stock from the heat and allow it to cool until it is refrigerator temperature.
  • Wash all mushrooms in lukewarm water in a deep bowl. Mix the mushrooms well to loosen the dirt. Remove them from the water by hand, leaving the dirt behind.
  • Remove the stems from the shiitake mushrooms, and then slice all of the mushrooms ?- inch thick. Keep the button mushrooms separate from the others.
  • For soup :.
  • Heat a 6-8 quart saucepot over moderately high heat. Pour in the melted butter. Add button mushrooms and diced yellow onions to hot butter and cook until mushrooms are soft.
  • Add the remaining mushrooms and garlic and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Add the sherry and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat and add the flour. Using a cooking spoon, mix well and cook for 2 minutes or until butter and flour (roux) start cooking away from the sides of the saucepot.
  • Add half of the cold beef stock and stir until liquid thickens.
  • Add the remainder of the stock and spices and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Add the cream and allow soup to simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
