Let’s cook

At a glance

You're making an aromatic, creamy mushroom soup that comes together in under an hour. The main work involves sautéing dried porcini mushrooms, simmering potatoes until tender, then giving everything a quick blend with a hand blender to create a luxurious texture—plus you'll want to toast some bread cubes on the side for crunch.
