How to Make Zupa Grzybowa:
- Place the dried mushrooms in a bowl and cover them with 6 cups of hot water. Allow them to soak for 30 minutes to 4 hours, or until the mushrooms have softened and become pliable.
- Next day, place the mushrooms with the water they were soaking in a medium pot.
- Add the broth (or water and vegetables), spices, and a pinch of salt. Boil covered on low for 30 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft.
- When the wild mushrooms are cooked, strain everything out, reserving the liquid broth.
- Discard the vegetables and once the mushrooms cool, dice them and return to the broth.
- Whisk the flour into sour cream until smooth and lump free. Temper the sour cream/flour mixture by gradually adding about 1 cup of the hot soup to the sour cream, mixing constantly until smooth.
- Now pour the sour cream mixture slowly into the pot, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for five minutes, stirring occasionally. Add salt & pepper to taste and serve with parsley leaves and slices of bread.
