A bowl of mushroom soup is good for the soul

A light and delightful soup, full of the rich and subtle natural flavors of commonly available mushrooms. Easy, warm and nutritious, it can also be served as a light meal for any day of the year.

You can use whatever mushrooms you have. Using a mix of different mushroom species , as well as a mix of fresh and dried mushrooms, will help bring depth to the flavor. Chinese cabbages, with their mellow flavor and a soft texture, are often used to compliment natural umami-intense ingredients including mushrooms and seafoods in Chinese cuisine.
