Creamy Asiago Mushroom Soup
Creamy Asiago Mushroom Soup is what’s on the menu this week, friends…and this recipe is just as yummy as it sounds 🙂
Soup making days are the BEST!
There’s something magical about turning up the music, chopping up some fresh ingredients, and transforming those ingredients to create a beautiful and delicious pot of soup.
For this mushroom soup I used three different types of mushrooms…baby portobellos, shiitake, and white mushrooms.
You could certainly mix it up and use whatever mushrooms you prefer.
How to make Creamy Asiago Mushroom Soup
I chopped the mushrooms and two onions to start the soup.

They go into a large soup pot over medium heat with olive oil, kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes for little spice.

The mushrooms and onions will take about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Then add some fresh thyme leaves and garlic.
Cook those about a minute or so and add chicken broth.
If you would like to make this a vegetarian soup, simply swap the chicken broth for vegetable broth.

Once you add the broth, bring this to a boil and then reduce the heat to simmer for 10 more minutes.

Next, use an immersion blender to blend the soup to desired consistency.
I wanted mine pretty creamy so I blended for about a minute.
If you want yours with some bigger mushroom pieces, just blend for less time.
If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can transfer to a regular blender.
But, caution, let the soup come to room temperature before blending.
The steam from very hot soup will cause the blender lid to blow off.
Adding heavy cream and shredded asiago cheese is the last step.
Let it come to boil once again and reduce the heat to simmer for about 5 minutes.
Taste for seasoning and add more kosher salt and pepper if needed.
And some crushed red pepper flakes if you want a bit more spice.

Serve Creamy Asiago and Mushroom Soup with more cheese and fresh thyme sprinkled over top.
You could also serve with some bread or crostini for dipping!
