Recipe - Cream of Mushroom Soup

Cream of Mushroom Soup

Ingredients:

2 (7 ounce) cans chopped mushrooms, undrained

2 cups water
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1/4 teaspoon white pepper, or to taste
2 cans (10-3/4 ounces each) chicken broth
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup heavy cream
Chopped parsley for garnish

Directions
Clean mushrooms with a mushroom brush or damp paper towel. Cut half of the mushrooms into slices. Chop the remainder.

Melt half of the butter in a large saucepan and saute sliced mushrooms until golden. Remove and reserve sliced mushrooms. Add remaining butter to the same pan, along with the chopped mushrooms and sweet onions. Sprinkle with salt. Cook, stirring often, until onion is soft.

Return sliced mushrooms to the pan. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly about 2 minutes, until smooth. Slowly add chicken broth while stirring. Simmer, stirring often, until thickened. Add nutmeg and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning, if need be.

Add heavy cream and bring to a simmer. (Do not boil.) Ladle into soup bowls and garnish with chopped parsley.

The canned version comes in handy for casseroles, but for a stand-alone cream of mushroom soup, go for the real thing with lots of mushrooms.

How to Cook Water Spinach(Kangkong) Salad with Salted Egg

Hi Foodies! If you are on a tight budget and looking for a healthy dish. This one is for you! Our main ingredient is Water spinach, also known as kangkong or ong choy, which is a common vegetable in Southeast Asian cuisine and is often considered a "food for the poor" because it is relatively inexpensive and easily accessible, particularly in rural areas. But don't underestimate it! The plant is known for its ability to grow in flooded or waterlogged conditions, making it well-suited to cultivation in low-lying areas and along riverbanks. Additionally, water spinach is highly productive, with a single plant capable of producing a large number of greens. This allows farmers to grow a significant amount of food on a small plot of land. As a result, it is a popular crop among low-income farmers, who can grow it as a source of food for their families and sell it at the market. And lastly, it is a very healthy food that provides a huge amount of nutrients our body ne...

Tips on Buying Air Fryer | Features and Maintenance

Hi Foodies! Today, I will share with you a very convenient home appliance that will save you time from cooking fried dishes. An air fryer is a kitchen appliance that uses hot air to fry food, typically with little or no oil. The food is placed in a basket or tray and is heated by a heating element and a fan, which blows the hot air around the food. This creates a crispy, fried texture similar to deep-frying but with less oil and fat. Air fryers can be used to cook a wide variety of foods, including chicken, fish, vegetables, and of course French Fries which I love! Air frying is generally considered to be a healthier alternative to traditional deep-frying. Because food is cooked in hot air instead of oil, it absorbs less oil and fat. This can result in fewer calories and less saturated fat in the finished dish. Additionally, because the food is not submerged in oil, it can have a crispy texture similar to deep-fried food without the added fat. However, it...
