I was walking through a park the other day and noticed some nice oyster mushrooms growing from a dead oak tree. These mushrooms are one of the easiest to identify and one the best to eat. Here is the recipe..
1lb oyster mushrooms chopped
3 leeks chopped
3 cloves garlic chopped
3-4 red potatoes chopped small
2 tbl spoons of butter
2-3 cups of Half and half or heavy cream
2 cups chicken broth (make it concentrated, i did 3 cubes to 2cups of water)
3/4 Cup white wine (i used a savigoun blanc)
salt and pepper to taste
Start off by sauteing the leeks with butter for 5 min. Add garlic and continue to saute for another 2-3 min. Add mushrooms and continue to saute for another 5-7 min. Add white wine and reduce by half. Then add your chicken stock. Bring it down to a simmer and add your cream. While all of this is cooking bring a pot of water to a boil. Boil the potatoes for 7-10 minutes or until they are al dente. Once done add them to your soup. add salt and pepper as needed. I served this with rosemary focaccia toast. This is a simple and delicious meal! Hope yall give it a try.
