Hungarian Inspired Mushroom Soup

Now is a good time to get prepared and stock your freezer with easy soups and healthy meals. Soups are easy to make at home (especially if you're too sick to make something complicated) reheating them is an easy choice for equipping you and your family with food for several days.
Once cooled this soup can lay flat on your freezer. Meaning you can stack several on top of one another.

Very important to this dish and all Hungarian paprika-based dishes is the quality of the paprika. There are a lot of paprika powders on the market but only a few of them come from Hungary. Use quality, real Hungarian paprika. There’s no comparison in flavor.

Recipe:

3-4 cloves garlic
1/2 white onion
4 tbsp sour cream
1 lb mushrooms
32 oz stock (any stock will work. May I recommend mushroom?)
1.5 tbsp dry dill
1.5 tbsp sweet paprika
Salt/pepper (to taste)
high heat oil (ghee, grape seed, avocado oil will work)

1) Start a saucepot on high heat with a light coating of oil.
2) Once very hot start roughly chopping the mushrooms and tossing them into the pan. Let the mushrooms get some color and stir them occasionally to make sure they all get a little color
3) While the mushrooms brown, start chopping the garlic cloves (rough mince) and onions.
4) Once you can see a layer of brown on the pan aka fond, its time to deglaze with the stock. Keep the pan hot and stir with a rubber spatula while mixing in the stock. Scrape all the fond off the bottom.
5) Lower to a low/medium heat, add the garlic, onion, salt pepper, and spices. Cook covered until the onions are semi-transparent. Then turn off the heat.
6) Once cooled enough to touch the pot, add the sour cream. Mix until creamy, add more for a more creamy and more tangy soup.

Storage:

If you plan on reheating, undercook the soup slightly. (once the onions are semi-transparent on the edges, but not the middle) And once your lovely Hungarian Mushroom Soup has cooled dump into a zipper-lock bag, label with date and type, and then lay flat in your freezer. Reheating is as simple as tossing it into a pot and reheating on the stove.

I’ve always admired your video style....very professional despite being a smaller YouTube channel. If you uploaded regularly, I think you’d blow up. Stay safe! 🤙🏼

Hi Keto Chef Rob, I tried your soup, like the idea of not caramelizing the onions. it was simple to put together. I added some chilli powder as well as the paprika, I used my immersion blender, kept a few larger mushrooms for texture. I loved the idea of dill in the soup. Does cream split as well. I didn’t take a chance and followed your instructions. I topped it with some crispy pieces of bacon and some blue cheese, which I had. Thanks so much for your recipes. Peace to you as well and success to you.

I made this using smoked cremini & oyster mushrooms. The taste was out of this world! My family and friends LOVED IT!!!

Lookin sharp, my dude, liking the hair. Thanks for posting despite everything going on, I’m running out of ideas!

if you have your soup separate wile reheating leftovers I find I can fix it by bringing it to light boil and adding in whipping cream wile whisking rapidly this will homogenize the soup as you slowly bring it back down proper temp that it should be at. This also works when fixing a broken butter emulsification.

I added some allspice, cream, chicken stock, and topped it with blue cheese, more dill. Thanks for the recipe.

Looks delicious....thank you for your Keto recipes! Can’t wait to try this.

Made the soup with Baby Bellas, dried dill, spanish paprika (probably old). Soup turned out great, nice, hardy and tasty. I made one mistake. I was so careful to reduce the soup temp to 115 degrees in a cool water bath before incorporating the sour cream. All that worked great. But then, I like my soup hot, so put back on stove to heat it back up. So far, so good. But then after plate up, I added a small dollop of sour cream as a garnish. Sure enough, with hot soup that sour cream garnish broke on me! When I went back for seconds, I left the garnish off this time, better results! Bring on the next recipe!

i've been thinking of using xanthan gum as a thickener. i resisted for a long time but you don't need a lot of it to get the right texture.

Excellent choice on the music. What was the song in the beginning?

[raymonchartier]

Bro, love the videos!! Keep up the good work🤙

[andrewwheeler]

Hey chef rob, up here in north east of US Iv seen some morels, and blue oyster mushrooms just starting pop out in woods. it’s rained 3 days and where expecting next 2-3 days of sun I hope I can harvest some freshly foraged mushrooms to make some this you think that would work or should I throw a pack of buttons in too.

You can also thicken soups greek style with avgolemono. 1 egg yolk mixed with lemon juice, warmed through with a few spoonfuls of soup and then mixed in the rest of the soup

Thanks for the recipe! The beard is looking good btw

[joellangenfeld]

Love Mushrooms, can't stand dill. Will give this a try. My go-to substitutions are usually either marjoram or something minty. Any suggestions?

[andrewwheeler]

I think your recipe would feed maybe feed a couple or 4 people with smaller portions so there realistically shouldn’t be too much leftover but if you where to bulk make batch like 2-3x batch and planned on maybe chilling this down and reheating id just slash the sour cream and use heavy cream it has a more aggressive emulsification property that can withstand chilling and reheating over Sour cream tends to break if it’s overheated but if you just are making small batch like keto chef rob go with sour cream it gives it killer tangy-ness

Take a photo of your soup? Tag me. I'd love to see it.

[debbyjackson]

I thought that onions were rich in carbs ???

[sanjanewmoonlife]

This is better, other people mix lemon with milk together.
I don't want to mix lemon and milk, or cream together in soup.
