This soup is WONDERFUL!! It is even better with Shitake mushrooms, as I have made it both ways. Very easy to make, a new family favorite. Thank You!!

This soup was a nice change from your standard creamy mushroom soup. I only used 1 can of chicken broth (about 1.5 cups) and milk, because I didn't have any cream. I added slightly more sour cream to compensate. It was delicious! The only change I will make next time is to chop the mushrooms.

This was great. I had eaten Hungarian Mushroom Soup at a dinner out and this was very similar. Even my fussy husband loved it. I lightened it up a little by using 1 cup broth and 2 cups fat free half and half along with my fat free sour cream. You couldn't tell it was low fat!

My Hungarian father would have loved this soup. I went heavy on the mushrooms as well as on the dill. I used olive oil for the sauteing. For religious reasons I couldn't use the whipping cream or the sour cream (we were having this with a meat meal) so I added some mashed potato to the soup to achieve a creamy consistency. Good soup, can't wait to try out the dairy version.

This recipe actually comes from the first Moosewood Cookbook and has been a soup standby of mine for years. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

We had this for supper with sandwiches the other night and it was really delicious! It was ready in under an hour but tasted like it had been simmering for hours. Thanks for sharing, Janis!

Delicious! I used low sodium soy sauce and cut the salt down to 1/2 tsp and even by cutting the salt down, it didn't take away from the flavor at all; otherwise I followed the other ingredients exactly. I wasn't able to get the broth to cook to a creamy thickness; it came out rich tasting and smooth. Chock full of meaty mushrooms. This recipe made just a little over 4 cups. I really enjoyed this easy soup for my low carb eating, thanks for posting.

This was so easy to make and although I was a little suspicious about the seasonings, it all turned out fantastic. It was absolutely delicious and my husband LOVED it, which he is very skeptical of new things, he inhaled it and now it's on the weekly rotation. It's wonderful with crusty bread.

This was a wonderful tasting soup. I followed the recipe exactly. Very easy to make, but a restaurant quality taste. Thank you for the recipe. We are having guest over tonight and this is on the menu.

This soup is AWESOME! Such a unique and delicious flavor. And so easy to make. We usually make this one on our "soup and salad" dinner nights. Thank you for sharing this!
