directions

  • To brown and soften the onions, heat ½ cup of water or vegetable stock in a large pot and add the onions.
  • Cook over high heat, stirring often, until the onions are soft and all the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
  • Add another ¼ cup of water or vegetable stock, stir to loosen any bits of onion that have stuck to the pan, and continue cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated and onions begin to brown, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and spices.
  • Lower the heat slightly, cover and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add the soy sauce and stock.
  • Cover and simmer 10 minutes.
  • In a separate pan, mix the olive oil and flour to form a thick paste.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute then whisk in the soy milk or rice milk and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until steamy and slightly thickened.
  • Add the milk mixture to the soup.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and red wine just before serving.

  1. I tried this for lunch over the weekend and found that it had a nice earthy flavor. I used regular milk, and substituted dill seeds for dill weed, because I was out. The browned onions and the wine really add depth to the flavor. Best vegetarian fare I've had in a long time: thanks!
     
  2. Went over like a bomb ! Everyone had a Moreish feeling and was so quick I couldn't believe it.
     
  3. My goodness...... what a lovely welcoming soup... I most enjoy its bountiful flavor....! I recommend adding pinot grigio for the white wine.. and I did not add it sparingly... let those mushrooms relax and bathe a bit too ...LOL
     
  4. I used to make this soup years ago. It's from "The High Road to Health" by Lindsay Wagner. I rediscovered it recently and it's better than I remembered! I leave the caraway seeds out. (Never have them in the pantry.) Same with the wine. I also serve this as gravy for mashed potatoes. Absolutely delicious!
     
  5. This was good. I'm eating it right now with tofu mixed in - but without the milk mix. It was good both ways, though, even though I used vanilla soy milk! It smelled great cooking, and I like that unlike some other soups, you've only got a few fresh ingredients to buy. I did need to add some extra water, but I tink next time I'll use broth. The wine definitely does add goodness. All this and it's completely healthy, too!

Gavin "Miller" Duncan passed away November 12, 2004 in Laurel, MD from complications of a "broken" heart. The outpouring of support from the Recipezaar community while his health was declining was a huge comfort to him and even "perked him up" a bit in his final month. Miller was a huge asset to Recipezaar, not only due to his incredible collection of recipes, but his participation in the forums. Miller was known for his wonderful low-sodium recipes, his warmth, and last, but not least, his wicked, dry sense of humor. Liza at Recipezaar ********************************************************* No, the picture to the left is not me. It is, in fact, a picture of famous TV Chef Jamie Oliver (a/k/a Thpit Boy)’s grandfather, the late Sir Topaz McWhacker. Note the strong family resemblance, most noticeable in the nose, eyebrows, and general lack of cleanliness Legend has it that Topaz taught Thpit everything that he knows about whacking and about only washing and combing his hair twice a year. . Instead of the trivia that many Recipezaar members have displayed on their “About Me” pages, I thought it might be a tad more helpful if I were to provide some beneficial information that you can put to good practical use either in your own kitchen or when you are watching the antics of some celebrated TV chefs. So, for your enlightenment..... . . Chairman Kaga: When he says “Ion Shff”, he really means “Iron Chef” or, perhaps, “I need a Kleenex” . Chef Paula Deen: When she says “awl”, she really means “oil”. When she says “y’all”, she really means “everyone except m’all”. When she says “bring the water to a bawl”, I have no clue what she means - I thought you could only make a baby “bawl”. And, boys and girls, you can easily Deenize the sentences that you use in your very own kitchen, such as “All y’all can bawl your corn in olive awl or wrap it in aluminum fawl”. . Emeril Lagasse: When he says “confectionery sugar’, he really means “confectioners’ sugar”. When he says “pappa-reeka”, he really means “paprika”. When he says “inside of”, he really means “in”. When he says “a little”, he really means “a lot”. Have you ever tried to count the number of times he says “a little” during any given show? Don’t – it will drive you nuts. When he says “cardamin”, he really means “cardamom”. When he says “my water don’t come seasoned”, what he really means is “I need a new joke writer”. When he says “that www dot food thing”, he really means “I flunked Computerese 101”. . Iron Chef Morimoto: When he says “Foo Netwu”, he really means “Food Network”. . Dessert Dude Jacques Torres: When he says “I going”, he really means “I am going”. (The verb “to be” has apparently been deleted from the French language.) . Spit Boy Jamie Oliver: When he says “whack it in the oven”, he really means “I am into hot, kinky stuff”. When he says “Bob’s yer uncle”, what he really means is “you’d better ask your aunt how well she REALLY knew that mailman named Robert”. When he says “rocket”, he really means “an older weapon being used in Iraq”. When he says “Fewd Netwuk”, he really means “Food Network”. . Numerous chefs: When they say “codfish” and “tunafish”, what they really mean is “cod” and “tuna”, respectively. Please note that they use these terms so that you don’t go out and buy “codanimal” or “tunavegetable” by mistake. Having said that, I have no clue as to why they don’t refer to “troutfish”, “salmonfish”, “red snapperfish”, etc., etc. . Giggly-Wiggly Rachael Ray: When she says “EVOO”, she really means “don’t use BOCO (boring old corn oil)”. When she says “a little lettuce action going on”, she really means “with only 8 minutes left in the game, cabbages are still in the lead, but lettuces are making a strong comeback”. . Two Fat Ladies: When they say “I gwing”, they really mean “I am going” or “Sorry, but we have been watching too many episodes of Jacques Torres’ show”. . Please note that the above is not all-inclusive. If there are other celebrity chef words or phrases that have you stumped, please post an "ISO" message in the discussion forums and I will find the translation for you.
