This earthy, rich soup was inspired by Grand Flordian’s Victoria and Albert’s Roasted Garlic and Gruyere Cream Soup. While that soup is warm and inviting, I was missing a deeper note, so Hall added in some mushroom puree and a hit was born. Now this soup is perfect for those chilly autumn and winter nights, when you want to curl up by a fireplace and relax with a tasty bowl of soup.
