What Do You Serve with Mushroom Soup?

This mushroom soup can be used as the main meal or as a starter to your favorite dinner. You can serve this soup with bread or crackers. Even toast or croutons can be served to add an extra touch to this soup.

Some ideas I really like with this are a toasted piece of this soft potato bread or some of the best homemade cheesy garlic bread. It can also be served with this mozzarella thyme pull-apart bread.

Of course, you can always make this soup and serve it with a salad. I love it with this Panzanella salad recipe, but it can also go great alongside this avocado chicken salad or even a simple Mediterranean pasta salad.

How to Make Hungarian Mushroom Soup

Start by preparing your vegetables. Chop the onions into bite-sized pieces and slice or chop the mushrooms. I like to slice then puree later, but if you want a chunky soup, then dice the mushrooms instead of slicing.

Whisk together the flour and milk until no lumps remain. Set this aside to add later as the vegetables cook to thicken your soup.

In a stockpot or larger saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Add in the onions and cook them until softened and beginning to brown. Stir regularly for around 10 minutes.

Once the onions are softened, add in the mushrooms and cook them for an additional 5 minutes until reduced in size and softened, making sure to stir them regularly.

To the soup, add paprika, dill, vegetable broth, soy sauce, and wine.

Stir together, then bring to a simmer. Lightly bubbling but not a rolling boil.

Note: If you don't drink wine, you can use additional stock or broth to replace it in this recipe.

Let this simmer until the liquid has reduced by approximately half. This should take around 10 minutes.

Then, add in the milk and flour mixture you made earlier, and continue cooking until it has thickened, for an additional 8 to 10 minutes.

Once thickened, reduce the heat to low and then stir in the sour cream and lemon juice.

Once it has heated through, you can puree it with a blender.

Serve with a garnish of fresh chopped parsley.

What Other Ways Can I Make This Soup?

Hungarian Mushroom soup can be cooked on the stovetop, like this recipe, but you can also make this in your slow cooker or in the Instant Pot. The steps are a bit different, and you might not have the exact flavor and texture, but it will still be delicious, creamy, and perfect for a tasty meal.

How to Make Mushroom Soup in the Slow Cooker

In a slow cooker, combine the onions, mushrooms, dill, paprika, soy sauce, wine, and broth. Then cook for 3 hours on high heat.

Whisk together the flour and milk then stir, the sour cream, and the lemon juice into the slow cooker. Cook for an additional 1 hour.

If you want added richness, add the butter to the mixture at the beginning of cooking.

How to Make Mushroom Soup in the Instant Pot

Turn the Instant Pot to the saute setting and add the butter and onions. Cook until softened for 4 to 6 minutes, then add in the mushrooms. Continue cooking for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.

Add the dill, paprika, soy sauce, white wine, and broth to the pot, then set the lid to seal. Cook on high pressure for 2 minutes. Once the cooking cycle has ended, let it naturally release for 5 minutes before quickly releasing the remaining pressure.

Remove the lid from the Instant Pot, then whisk together the flour and milk and pour into the pot.

Turn on the saute feature, and let it simmer for 5 minutes to thicken before stirring in the sour cream and lemon juice.
