For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of wild mushrooms in addition to the more common varieties. A splash of heavy cream or a dollop of crème fraîche can add extra creaminess to the finished soup. If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to puree the entire soup before adding the reserved mushrooms and spinach.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
10 mins
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the leeks, onions, and garlic and sauté until softened and translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
02
Step
30 mins
Add the chopped mushrooms (reserving a handful for later) to the pot along with the savory, oregano, sherry, chicken stock, tomato paste, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cook for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
03
Step
1 mins
Remove the bay leaf. Carefully strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve, reserving the broth. Discard the solids, or optionally, puree a portion of them and add back to the broth for a thicker consistency.
04
Step
5 mins
Return the strained broth to the pot. Add the reserved chopped mushrooms and spinach leaves. Cook until the spinach is wilted and the mushrooms are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
05
StepSeason the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese or a swirl of cream, if desired.
