Portobello Mushroom Soup

Portobello mushrooms are the steaks of the mushroom world - large, meaty, and incredibly satisfying. This soup celebrates their robust character with a deep, rich broth that could satisfy any carnivore. It's the mushroom soup you'd find at a steakhouse.

Roasting the portobellos first concentrates their flavor and adds caramelized notes. Combined with a splash of red wine and fresh herbs, this soup is sophisticated enough for a dinner party but comforting enough for a rainy night.
