Rich & Creamy Porcini Mushroom Soup
If you love creamy mushroom soups, then this one with porcini (also known as penny bun or king bolete mushrooms) will be right up your alley. It’s so velvety and flavorful that you’ll definitely want a second serving. It’s delicious when served with croutons, pita chips, cheese topping or a savory pesto babka.
Enjoy!
