Delicious Mushroom Soup with Buckwheat Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced (Any variety, such as cremini or button)
  • 1 cup buckwheat groats (Rinsed and drained)
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (Or chicken broth for non-vegetarians)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon thyme, dried
  • 1 teaspoon salt (Adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (Freshly ground)
  • 1 cup cream (Optional for garnish)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (For garnish)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and garlic, sauté until translucent.

    Avoid browning the onions for a sweeter flavor.
  2. Add Mushrooms

    Stir in the sliced mushrooms and thyme, cooking until the mushrooms are softened, about 5 minutes.

    Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Add Broth and Buckwheat

    Pour in the vegetable broth and add the rinsed buckwheat. Bring to a boil.

    Ensure the buckwheat is fully submerged in the broth.
  4. Simmer

    Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes until the buckwheat is cooked.

    Check occasionally and stir to prevent sticking.
  5. Season and Serve

    Season the soup with salt and black pepper. Serve hot, garnished with cream and parsley if desired.

    For a thicker soup, blend a portion before serving.
