Sour Cream Mushroom Soup

Prep Time:  35 min

1/2 pound mushrooms -- sliced

1 medium onion -- sliced

1 clove garlic -- minced

1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

3 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons arrowroot

28 1/4 ounces beef broth

1/2 cup cream

2 cups water

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Dash hot pepper sauce (Tabasco, Crystal, etc.)

Salt & pepper to taste

1 cup sour cream

 

1. In a Dutch oven or soup pot, add the butter and sauté the mushrooms, onion, garlic, tarragon and nutmeg until the veggies are tender.

2. Gradually add the broth; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low; slowly add sour cream.

3. In a small separate bowl, add arrowroot to a small amount of water -- just enough to make a thin paste. Add to soup, and cook and stir until smooth. Stir in cream and water; add lemon juice, hot pepper sauce and salt and pepper. Heat through but do not boil, as the cream may curdle.
