Tumblr media

Season: Autumn/Winter
Category: Soups and Stews, Comfort Food, Vegetarian Option
Method: Stovetop
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
Vegetables
8 oz. Portobello mushrooms, chopped
8 oz. White button mushrooms, chopped
8 oz. Baby bella mushrooms, chopped
6-8 oz. Oyster mushrooms, chopped
4 oz. Shiitake mushrooms, chopped
2 oz. King oyster mushrooms, chopped
0.5 oz. Chanterelle mushrooms, dried and crushed
2.5 lbs. Yukon gold potatoes, cubed
4 oz. Carrot, sliced or shredded
2 green onions stalks, snipped
Dairy
1/4 cup Unsalted Butter
8 oz. Cream cheese pkg, cubed
2 oz. Parmesan, shredded or grated
2 oz. Cheddar, shredded
Seasonings
1/4 cup Seasoned Salt
1 tbsp. Trader Joe's Umami Blend (optional)
4 tsp. Chicken Better-Than-Bouillon, or 4 tsp. Chicken Bouillon
5 cups Water
2 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
2 tsp. Smoked Paprika
2 tsp. Ground Black Pepper
2 tsp. Celery Salt
1 tsp. Powdered Lion's Mane Mushroom (optional)
1.5 oz. Chopped Bacon/Bacon Bits (optional)
Tools
8 qt. Stockpot with Lid
Non-Serrated Kitchen Knife
Cheese Grater
Stirring implement
Potato Masher
Ladle
Instructions
Place the butter in the bottom of the stockpot and rough-chop all of your mushrooms. Toss the mushrooms into the pot on top of the butter, then add the green onions, carrots, and all seasonings on top. Cover and simmer on low for about 5 minutes.
While your mushrooms are simmering, cube your potatoes. When the 5 minutes are up, dump the potatoes on top of the mushrooms and add the water. Stir the mixture so that the potatoes sink to the bottom and the mushrooms rise to the top. Cover and bring to a rolling boil.
When the water reaches a high bowl, reduce the heat to medium and keep covered for 20 minutes or until potatoes are softened.
While the vegetables and seasonings cook, cube your cream cheese and shred your parmesan and cheddar. Set them aside.
After the 20 minutes is up, remove the pot from heat and let contents stand uncovered for at least 5 minutes before adding the cheeses. The pot must cool somewhat or it will break the cream cheese and ruin your meal. There is no saving the meal if that happens. If the pot becomes too cool and you find the cheeses aren't blending, you can put it back on the burner covered on low to reheat it slowly.
With everything now in the pot, grab your potato masher and start smashing the potatoes and cream cheese cubes. When the potatoes are mashed and the soup thickens, use the masher and just stir the soup until the cream cheese is thoroughly blended.
Some notes:
I don't bother to peel the potatoes because the skins are nutritious and relatively thin on Yukon golds, but you're obviously welcome to do so if you prefer.
Wearing a mask when snipping the green onions will keep you from tearing up!
The soup keeps in the refrigerator for about a week and a half. Add 1/2 cup of milk when reheating.
This is my own recipe, which actually grew out of my potato soup recipe. It's one of my favorite meals when I feel sick and it makes a ton. Outside of chopping veggies, it's not very intensive either. You can easily halve the recipe as well.
When I started doing nature photography, I wanted to identify and learn about my subjects. I found edible plants and mushrooms fascinating because I'm a pretty adventurous eater, so I started looking for ways to implement the stuff I found. Mushrooms, in particular, have a lot of health benefits that scientists are just discovering and different varieties are entering the broader consumer market. Safeway only just began carrying shiitake, oysters, and chanterelles in the last couple of years. Private grow kits are also available for people who like to grow their own food.
Try this recipe with your own regional mushroom varieties and experiment with the seasonings a little.

so my roommate texts me she'll be out for the whole night, leaving the apartment to myself, and what ~wild~ things have i been doing with my freedom??
listening to TBB S2 soundtrack through speakers instead of headphones, at a slightly-louder-than-normal-volume
cleaning
laundry
that's literally it lmao
my roommate's here a lot (WFH, doesn't go out much) so i rarely have the opportunity to deep clean. as soon as she texted me, i literally ran to grab the vacuum. then some degreaser & gloves for the kitchen. and went absolutely nuts cleaning shit lmao.
(for the record, yes she does cleaning too. kinda. the vacuuming was moreso for my bedroom, she vacuums the actual apartment regularly. the kitchen cleaning? not so much. even though she works from home and does homemade meals, thus is using the kitchen a lot... give and take, i guess.)

Chicken Saag
You know you are truly alive when you’re living among lions.” ―Karen Blixen Jump to recipe I adore saag… after trying saag aloo, I wanted to try it without the potatoes. Maybe witch chicken? And some rice with a dusting of turmeric and curry. I grabbed one of Costco’s easy rotisserie chickens, which let my mom and gourmet aunt add more chicken, if desired. And a dash of sour cream. Things I…

You might find that you relate to multiple levels, choose whatever you feel most accurately reflects your day to day cooking experience. I'm curious what everyone's experience is! I've gotten up to level 4 before but I'm more at a level 2 now.
Level 1: I don't use or have a full kitchen. Meals are prepared for me or I eat ready made food. I can reheat in the microwave.
Level 2: I use the kitchen sparingly. I will heat food in the microwave, on the stovetop, and/or in the oven. I am comfortable adding simple ingredients together for a meal (cereal and milk, granola, yogurt, and fruit). I can prepare simple things on the stovetop like instant ramen, instant mac, pasta or rice.
Level 3: I use the kitchen often. I am comfortable following simple recipes. I can prepare fruits and vegetables with a knife. I follow recipes with multiple steps (chop then pan-fry, boil then bake). My recipes often include multiple seasonings or sauces. I will handle raw meat like ground beef or turkey (if applicable)
Level 4: I use the kitchen everyday. I often use recipes with many steps or make meals with multiple side dishes. There are some dishes I don't use a recipe for, or I can make up simple recipes. I am comfortable handling most types of raw meat (think chicken breast, steak) and do so regularly (if applicable)
Level 5: I use the kitchen multiple times a day. I don't use written recipes very often. I can create dishes from whatever food is on hand. I make complex meals often. I can prepare any type of raw meat (full chicken or turkey, butchering your own food)
