Mushroom Soup
One Large Yellow Onion
1-2 pounds fresh mushrooms
2 tbsp olive oil
Broth, stock or water
Miso (mellow or dark, whichever you like)
Bay leaf
Thyme
Slice the onion. Warm the oil in a heavy pot and place the onion inside over very low heat to soften for 15 minutes or so.
Slice the mushrooms. Add to the pot. Let simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Sprinkle with thyme and add the bay leaf. Pour enough stock or water over the mushrooms and onions to cover. Give it a good stir and then let it come to a boil. Allow to boil for five minutes or so.
Remove from heat and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Stir in a big scoop of miso to taste. Remove the bay leaf and serve warm, but don't reheat (you'll kill the miso)
You can buy onions and mushrooms pre-sliced if you like. You can also buy broth with miso already in it or use powdered miso. It'll taste good, but it won't have the live cultures in it.
