Ingredients

1/4 c Butter

1 1/2 lbs fresh mushroom, sliced

1/2 c minced shallots or yellow onions

1/2 c American sherry

2 c Beef Broth

3 c half and half

5 c Water

2 Bay leaves

1/2 tsp white pepper

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 c cornstarch mixed with 1/2 C water to form a paste

Directions

In a stock pot, melt butter. When Sizzling, add the sliced mushrooms and shallots. Cook over medium heat until softened.

Add Sherry, and reduce liquid by half. Add broth, half and half, water and spices. Cook at a strong simmer for 15 minutes.

Reduce heat to low, and keep cooking for another half hour to concentrate flavors.

Add 1/4 cup cornstarch paste. Stir briskly until soup is slightly thickened. Add more cornstarch if soup needs thickening or more water to thin it out to suit your own taste.

Serve with parsley garnish and croutons if desired.
