    The wife just had her tonsils out, and no she is not a teenager! I used this recipe as inspiration. Because she is not supposed to have dairy as part of her recovery and it needed to be very smooth, I basically followed the recipe to a point. I could not find all the same mushrooms. I used fresh oyster, shitake and portabella. I also used what we had, which was a pint of homemade chicken stock. Once I got to the point after you add the thyme (skipping the cream), I let it cool a bit then put it in the super blender. I only blended until it well pureed, but not completely emulsified. Then I did a roux of 4 tbsps butter and 4 Tbsps AP flour and poured the blended mixture slowly over it. Also added a good splash of Sherry at the end. It was absolutely delicious and she was able to gobble down a couple of bowls. Thanks for the inspiration!
