  • When butter is melted, add potatoes, onion and white mushrooms; season with salt and pepper.
  • Saute until onions are translucent, add broth, cheese and chipotle; stir to combine and allow to simmer until potatoes are very soft, stirring frequently- do not worry if cheese seems to clump.
  • Puree soup in a blender or food processor, strain through a sieve back into a saucepan (press on solids to remove all liquid) and add cream and portabellas.
  • Heat gently until just simmering.

  1. Yes, this recipe makes a BIG mess, but it is definately worth it!! It is one of the best tasting soups I have ever eaten. Sublime.
     
  2. finally got a chance to try this. i had no problem cleaning up afterwards other than the fact that i wanted to eat more of it rather than clean. the taste was so well blended and the texture was just perfect. it was simple enough to make and i followed the recipe exactly except for putting it through a seive which i didnt have...it didnt make a difference though. i will definitly make this again maybe not pureeing it to see how it comes out. fantastic soup!
     
  3. DON'T DO IT!! It takes 50 min to make but 3 hrs to clean melted cheese off the pans, spoons, blender, strainer, pots, etc. The original tastes great. The "creative adaptation" of a bit more chipotle and chopped portabella seems... unnecessary
     
  4. Fantastic soup with a great balance of flavors. It's not too spicy and not too cheesy or creamy. I love the contrast of the smooth soup with the chuncks of portobello in it. I do tire of completely smooth soups sometimes. A must try for mushroom lovers.
