Mexican Mushroom Soup
Mexican Mushroom Soup
"A simple mushroom soup prepared with epazote which gives it its uniquely Mexican taste. This is another recipe that our photographer Andres’ mother used to cook for him when he was a kid growing up in Cuernavaca. Real homecooking. In Spanish the soup is called sopa de hongos o sopa de champiñon. For a vegetarian / vegan soup you can substitute water or vegetable broth for the chicken broth. A very healthy soup with or without the chicken broth."
