Method

Cooking Steps

In a large pot over medium heat, melt unsalted butter until bubbling. Add chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and fresh mushrooms; cook until the mushrooms are softened and fragrant.
Sprinkle all-purpose flour over the vegetable mixture while stirring continuously for about 2 minutes to ensure the raw flour taste is cooked out.
Gradually incorporate low-sodium vegetable broth while whisking to prevent any lumps. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Slowly add whole milk while stirring gently. Heat without boiling.
Taste and add salt and pepper as desired. Incorporate fresh herbs if desired.
Ladle the soup into warm bowls, garnishing with extra mushrooms or fresh herbs if desired.
