My own creation Cream of Mushroom Soup Reviews Date of last review 4 Fri December 9, 2011 Recommended By Average Price Average Rating 100% of reviewers None indicated 9.3 Description: This is really yummy - I did a search on AllRecipes for a Low-Carb Mushroom soup - and came up with a partial blurb for one you had to pay for access for - so I made up my own from what I read there!! Ingredients: 1/2 medium onion - chopped\ 1/4 cup butter 2 cloves garlic - minced 2 cups chopped mushrooms (I used a mix of button & cremini - but all button works great!) 1 sprig rosemary (I used fresh, but about 1 tsp. dried would do the trick) 1 cup chicken stock 2 cups heavy cream 2 egg yolks Salt & Pepper to taste How To Prepare: 1. Saute onions in butter until translucent, add garlic and saute until garlic is a bit soft. 2. Add mushrooms and saute until mushrooms are soft. 3. Add chicken stock & rosemary and simmer for 15-20 minutes, until stock is reduced somewhat. 4. Add cream and bring to a slow boil. 5. Whisk egg yolks in a small bowl, and while whisking add a ladle of hot soup mixture. Whisk that in and repeat this 2 or 3 times more. This will bring the egg yolks up to soup temperature, so it doesn't make scrambled eggs when you add them to the soup! 6. Allow the soup to simmer for about 10 minutes or so - the eggs will thicken it a bit. 7. Add salt & pepper to taste. Number of Servings: 4 Carbs per serving - include all nutritional information if known: Fitday puts the whole recipe at 30g, making it 7.5g Carbs per serving.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 8    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Thick and creamy - very good Cons: 1 tsp. dried rosemary is a little too much for my taste - will use less next time. This is going into my "keepers" binder. My husband liked this too.

I used a little nutmeg to add complexity. Nice touch. Some red pepper flakes would also be good.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 9    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Creamy and rich Cons: none Just made this soup and globbled a big bowl. My tweaks were paprika, truffle powder and toasted walnuts in the soup and as garnish. I ran it through the blender after adding the egg mixture and then back in the pot to thicken. It makes a lot so I have lunch for a couple days. A very earthy soup for a wintery day. Thanks KellieB!
