Creamy Shiitake Mushroom Soup
On cold winter nights, a creamy, bone warming mushroom soup will leave spoons sad when you finish! Any mushroom variety will be tasty addition to this quick and easy soup, however we definitely recommend shiitake mushrooms from Country Gardens Family Farm. This meaty mushroom has an earthy and smoky flavor that helps cut through the rich creaminess of the butter. Rich in Vitamin C, shiitake mushrooms are a great addition to any dish!
