Equipment

Ingredients

To Roast:

  • 8 oz. cremini mushrooms chopped
  • 8 oz. oyster mushrooms chopped
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil

For the Soup:

To Garnish:

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread the cremini and oyster mushrooms on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Roast the mushrooms for 18–20 minutes, flipping the pieces around once halfway through, until lightly browned and tender. Set aside.
  • Warm olive oil in a large pot over medium heat for 90 seconds. After 90 seconds, when the oil is hot, add the onion and sauté for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden and softened.
  • Add the whole garlic cloves, celery, sage, mustard, thyme, coriander, paprika, black pepper, and bay leaves and cook for 4–5 minutes to soften the celery and garlic.
  • Add half of the roasted mushrooms, the dried porcini mushrooms, cannellini beans, and stock. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the bay leaves. Transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth, or use an immersion blender in the pot.
  • Return to low heat, stir in the rest of the roasted mushrooms, parsley, and tamari.
  • Serve hot, garnished with parsley leaves, a drizzle of olive oil, and coarsely crushed black peppercorns.

Notes

🍄 Wipe Out: To clean your mushrooms, just wipe them with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Running water makes them soak up liquid and drags dirt into the pores—moisture kills proper browning.
🔥 PLS Don’t Incinerate: Let mushrooms release their water in the oil as they roast. Pull them once they start caramelizing—overcooking turns them into dark, shriveled scraps that don’t blend nicely.
💧 Liquid Gold: The juice released while roasting is pure umami. Don’t leave it on the pan—stir it into your soup to lock in that deep mushroom flavor.
