Variations & Tips

✔ Use a mushroom blend – Shiitake adds depth, portobello brings meatiness. ✔ Dairy-free? – Substitute olive oil & coconut milk. ✔ Want it smoother? – Blend part or all of the soup. ✔ Extra richness – Add truffle oil, Parmesan, or a swirl of sour cream.

A simple yet flavorful dish that’s both elegant and satisfying. Enjoy!
