Ingredients

    • 4 tablespoons butter, room temperature
    • 3 tablespoons Fustini’s Medium SELECT olive oil
    • 2 cups sliced celery
    • 1 cup sliced shallots
    • 1 chopped leek or small onion
    • 3 garlic cloves, minced
    • 3 cups sliced stemmed fresh shiitake mushrooms (about 6 ounces)
    • 3 cups sliced cremini mushrooms (about 6 ounces)
    • 3 cups sliced oyster mushrooms (about 4½ ounces)
    • 1 oz dried porcini mushrooms, reconstituted in 2 cups boiling water
    • ½ cup dry white wine
    • 1 cup Fustini’s Vinoso vinegar
    • ½ cup all-purpose flour
    • 8 cups chicken stock or canned low-salt chicken broth
    • ¼ cup Fustini's Black Truffle balsamic
    • ½ cup whipping cream

    Directions

    1. Melt butter with olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add celery, shallots, onion and garlic and sauté, until onion is translucent about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Strain the porcini mushroom using a fine sieve. Reserve the liquid. Chop porcini mushroom and add all mushrooms and sauté, until beginning to soften about 4 minutes. Add white wine and Vinoso. Boil until liquid is reduced to glaze, about 6 minutes.
    2. Sprinkle mushrooms with 1/4 cup flour stir until mixture coats vegetables. Cook for 1-2 minutes to cook out the flour taste. Gradually mix in stock, agrodolce and porcini liquid. Bring to boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until mushrooms are tender, stirring often about 10 minutes.
    3. Working in batches, puree soup in blender or processor until smooth. Return soup to pot (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium-low heat before serving.) add cream and simmer. DO NOT BOIL. Adjusting seasoning and ladle soup into bowls and serve.
