2. Next, sprinkle with flour and thyme; stir for 30 seconds to coat and toast the flour slightly.

15-Minute Mushroom Thyme Soup Notes

Use a wide pan to maximize browning. Because moisture prevents color, avoid overcrowding the pan. Additionally, stirring briefly after adding flour helps prevent lumps.

For a smoother finish, blend more of the soup. Meanwhile, if you prefer a chunkier bowl, skip blending and simply season. Finally, serve with crusty bread or a light salad for a complete meal.

Quick Tips

• First tip: slice mushrooms uniformly for even browning.
• Next tip: choose low-sodium broth to control salt levels.
• For example, use oat milk for a dairy-free option.
