Ingredients

12 shucked oysters with juice

1 cup heavy cream

1 quart chicken broth

1/2 cup diced button mushrooms

1/4 teaspoon thyme (dried)

1/4 teaspoon oregano (dried)

1/4 teaspoon sage (dried)

2 tablespoons butter

1/2 cup finely diced celery

1/2 cup finely diced carrot

1/2 cup finely diced onion

1/2 cup butter

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 bay leaf

Directions

Start with a large-sized pot and sauté the diced onion, fresh mushrooms, carrot, and celery in 2 tablespoons of butter for 5 minutes. The onions should be transparent.

In a separate large-sized pot, melt 1/2 cup of butter and then stir in the flour. Continue to stir and let cook for 5 minutes.

Slowly stir the chicken broth into the flour mixture. Add the sautéed vegetables, sage, oregano, thyme, cayenne pepper, artichokes hearts, bay leaf, and salt. Simmer on medium heat for 30 minutes.

Finally, stir in the oysters and the cream. Allow the soup to simmer (without boiling) and serve with bread for dipping.
