Creamy Mushroom Soup

1. 1

   In a skillet, over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add chopped mushrooms and onion. Cook until mushrooms have reduced and onion has become transparent. Transfer mixture to a medium-sized pot.

2. 2

   To the pot, add chicken or vegetable stock, 1-1/2 cups milk, salt, pepper, dried thyme, and dried parsley. Begin heating soup over medium high heat.

3. 3

   While soup is heating, use the skillet to make a roux. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet. Once melted, add flour. Whisk together until incorporated and cook for 30 seconds. While whisking constantly, add the remaining 1/2 cup milk and mix until incorporated. Add to the soup pot and whisk lightly until there is no visible lumps.
