Porcini Mushroom Soup

Not everyone loves giant slurpy pieces of mushrooms, if this is you, simply chop the larger porcini into smaller pieces before soaking them. I should mention I decided to add some oven-roasted chestnuts* to this soup as well - totally optional, although they add an unexpected dense, sweetness, and are a traditional pairing with porcini. I also like this soup with a couple handfuls of cooked brown rice or farro or wheat berries thrown in. And most important -getting the salt right in this soup makes all the difference in the world. If you under-salt the soup it will be flat and the mushroom flavor will not come into focus, so be mindful of this. And lastly, when you go to reheat any leftovers, you may need to add a bit of water, and readjust the seasoning again.

2 ounces of dried porcini mushrooms
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 shallots, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 1/2 pounds small new potatoes, cut into 1/3-inch pieces
3 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 cups water
1 1/2 - 2 teaspoons salt

Extra toppings (optional) freshly grated Parmesan, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, fresh chives or fresh thyme.

Soak the porcini mushrooms in 2 cups of hot water for about 15 minutes, or until they are soft. Set aside.

Heat a splash of the olive oil in a large thick-bottomed pot, saute the shallots for a couple of minutes, then stir in the rosemary and potatoes. Add the remaining olive oil and cook for about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, the porcini along with the soaking liquid, the 4 cups of water, and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook for ten minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Taste. If the broth is too intense, you may want to add more water a bit at a time. And take care to get the salt right as well, it's important in a simple soup like this.

Serve as is or topped with any number of the ingredients I listed up above.

Serves 4-6.

*To oven-roast chestnuts, heat the oven to 400F. Prepare the chestnuts by setting them flat-side down. Now carefully cut a small 'x' into the round side of each chestnut - to allow steam to escape as they are roasting in the oven. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake cut side up, for about 20 minutes or until fragrant and the edges of the 'x' cuts begin to peel back a bit. Remove from oven, let cool, peel, and cut into quarters. I always roast a few extra chestnuts while I'm at it in case there are a couple that are off or moldy when you go to peel them.

great take home wedding favor.
"We debated having wedding favors--were they a waste of money? would our guests end up throwing them away?--but then we remembered these awesome heart holographic glasses. When you wear them, all points of light (candles, headlights, street lamps) turn into hearts. They're really awesome, and we gave them to our guests so they could have a romantic walk (or cab ride) home through Manhattan. (P.S. I'd love to wear a pair on the Brooklyn Bridge sometime!)" cup of jo

The ultimate in relaxation, the Six Sense Hideway on the island of Koh Yao Noi, Thailand seems to suggest that Swiss Family Robinson adventure that was always so cool. Essentially outdoors, each private villa basically allows you to sleep and bathe in a tree house, all with amazing views of the ocean.

got these on Plaisirs Simples blog so great.

Hello Lovely Ladies,

Lets have a lady talk.

New season, new opportunities to do what you want, what you love, and who you love. I just had my car broken into and all my favorite clothing stolen out of the trunk. HOWEVER bad this might be, its been actually a pretty good way to think fresh and know that life is full of surprises and unexpected happenings. You just gotta go with the flow, and know that shit can happen, but its gonna be alright!

ps. A car flipped over into the front yard of the house i am house sitting today.
