Nif's Wild Mushroom Soup

"I saw some oyster mushrooms at Costco and wanted to try and make a mushroom soup like one that you would get at a nice restaurant. I'm really happy with the results! If you're using this as an appetizer, it would probably be good for 6 smaller bowls. Enjoy!"

I love great food and I particularly like trying cuisines new to me! Although I don't prepare as much food as I used to, creating in my kitchen is still one of my favourite things to do. Enjoy!
