How to Make Zupa Grzybowa:
- Soak the wild mushrooms overnight or at least 4 hours.
- Next day, place the mushrooms with the water they were soaking in 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 (or save to make a Polish vegetable salad), and once the mushrooms cool, dice them and return to the broth.
- Add the cream and heat through. Taste, add salt, if needed and a sprinkle of fresh ground pepper.
- Finish by adding butter for extra flavor.
Note:Â This soup develops more flavor with time. It will taste 100% better the next day.
