Ingredients

  • 4 Tbs. Unsalted Butter
  • 1 Large Onion, Chopped
  • 1 lb. Fresh Mushrooms, Sliced
  • 2 tsp Dried Dill Weed
  • 1 Tbs. Paprika
  • 1 Tbs. Gluten Free Soy Sauce
  • 2 Cups Chicken Broth
  • 1 Cup Milk
  • 2 Tbs. Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp. Salt
  • ¼ tsp Black Pepper
  • ½ Cup Sour Cream
  • 2 tsp. Fresh Lemon Juice
  • ¼ Cup Fresh Parsley, Chopped

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Sauté the onions for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
  • Add Mushrooms and sauté for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Stir in Dill, Paprika, Soy Sauce, Salt, Pepper and Chicken Broth.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce to low, cover and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Just before the 25 minutes is up, whisk together the cornstarch and cold milk.
  • Stir the cornstarch mixture into the soup. This will help thicken the soup a little bit.
  • Stir in the sour cream, lemon juice, and fresh parsley.
  • Warm the soup through but do not boil. This should only take a minute or two.
  • Serve Immediately.

Notes

  • Fresh Dill vs Dried – Using fresh herbs in a recipe is great when you have them on hand. The ratio of fresh to dried herbs is usually 3:1. If you have fresh dill weed and are using it in your recipe, use 2 Tablespoons of chopped dill instead of the 2 teaspoons dried.
  • Using Fresh Dill – When using fresh dill, stir it into the soup at the end along with the fresh parsley.
  • Fresh Parsley – You want to make the most of your fresh herbs since you’ve spent good money on them. I like to make my own Frozen Herb Cubes after buying a bunch of parsley. They’re perfect for stirring into soup just before serving. You can find out how to make them HERE.
  • Gluten Free Soy Sauce – Gluten free soy sauce is most likely available at your local grocery store. If you’re having trouble finding it, you can get at an affordable price online in the link above.
