CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP (FOR CANNING)
Why I Love This Recipe
This is a very simple mushroom soup to make and quite tasty and quick. Instructions are for a pressure cooker but a hot water bath works just as well. I don't personally use a hot water bath so I can't advise on the time.
Ingredients You'll Need
1/3 cup butter
1 pound mushrooms, chopped or sliced
3/4 cup flour
2 quarts meat stock (chicken bouillon may be substituted)
1 T. salt
1 tsp. lemon juice
Directions
Melt butter.
Add mushrooms and cook until brown.
Add meat stock, saving enough to mix with the flour.
Make a paste with meat stock and flour.
Mix all ingredients and heat until it boils.
Put in jars and process in pressure canner for 40 minutes at 10 lb. pressure.
When opening to use, add equal amount of milk and soup.
Makes 5 pints. Can be tripled.
