Description

Mushroom soup is a liquid and comforting preparation made mainly with fresh or canned mushrooms, combined with ingredients such as broth, cream, onion, and spices. It is a highly valued option in gastronomy for its mild and earthy flavor that adds an umami touch to any menu.

The origin of mushroom soup is deeply rooted in European cuisine, especially in France and Central Europe, where mushrooms have traditionally been used to enhance dishes for their flavor and texture. Over time, this recipe has become popular internationally and is part of many home kitchens and restaurants around the world.

Regarding its properties, mushrooms are low in calories and rich in antioxidants, B-complex vitamins, potassium, and dietary fiber, which makes the soup nutritious and light. Furthermore, the combination with cream provides an additional supply of healthy fats and proteins, making it a nutritious and satisfying dish.

In the Hispanic world, mushroom soup can also be found under names such as sopa de hongos, sopa de setas (although "setas" usually refers to other types of edible mushrooms), or simply crema de champiñones when the texture is more unctuous and creamy.
