Recipe Directions
- 1. Wash and dry your mushrooms. Chop 'em up a bit.
- 2. Add all ingredients (except the second amount of reserved finely chopped mushrooms) into your high-speed blender. Blend on high until very smooth and well-blended. Blend for an abnormally long time because you want this raw cream of mushroom recipe to be slightly warm when coming out of the blender.
- 3. Pour liquidy mushroom soup mixture into a bowl(s). Add remaining mushrooms and stir with a spoon. See what we're doing here? We're making a liquidy mixture and then adding some chunks to it to give it some texture and variety. That's the trick to all my raw soups.
- 4. Eat this raw cream of mushroom soup recipe immediately, while still warm from the blender!
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The Rawtarian I am posting this raw cream of mushroom soup recipe for my raw friend Gayla. She is dying to making a batch of raw cream of mushroom soup so I wanted to post my simple mushroom soup recipe for her ASAP! I've actually been eating this for lunch all the time lately. As you can tell, I am on a raw vegan soup kick!
It's really quite freaky how much this tastes like Campbell's brand cream of mushroom soup. Also, you can vary the water content of this soup quite a bit to alter the result. I would start with 1/4 cup of water and slowly add a bit more water if necessary to (a) facilitate blending; and (2) to get the consistency that you like your soup.
Another note... Sometimes I like to make a very thick batch of this soup and use it like a mushroomy gravy, as well. Mmm!
In terms of portion sizes, this raw vegan mushroom soup recipe is perfect for one nice big bowl of soup for one person.

I just made this soup for lunch, and was really surprised how good it was, it was the best raw recipe I have tried yet, I have only been raw for 5 days, so that's probably not saying much, but I will definitely be adding this to my favorites list. I love how your site has lots of simple recipes, it makes it a lot easier when you don't have much time to put into it.

Sounds like you're doing great for only being 5 days in! Glad to have you here Amanda. :)

We had this for supper last night. I doubled it so it would be enough for me and my husband and added about five cloves crushed garlic, 1/2 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp fresh rosemary and then topped it with "Parmesan"*. We really enjoyed it :o)
*the way I like to make parmesan is 2 parts sesame seeds to 1 part nutritional yeast along with some sea salt, pop in all in a coffee grinder and process until well ground. I put mine in one of those fun little shakers like you have on your table in a pizza joint and keep it in the fridge as a condiment.

You should seriously consider specifying button mushrooms in your recipe, the vast majority of edible mushrooms cannot be consumed raw without severe gastrointestinal distress, cheers.

Really? I almost never cooked mushrooms, even before going raw, and never noticed that. Are there any in particular that I should avoid?

Everyone is different Caroline. I am like you with a "cast iron gut" my parents used to say and can eat almost anything. Enjoy your mushrooms.

I've made a few of your recipes, they are delicious! i was wondering, could you soak and peel almonds for this soup? cashews are so expensive here and sometimes i'm in the mood for something like this but not necessarily for the richness of cashews. just thought i'd ask if you've ever tried it with other nuts? Thanks for all your recipes! my husband, kids and I LOVE them:)

You could certainly try the almonds, Ashley. I think brazil nuts and macadamia nuts could work too. Also, perhaps just reducing the cashews might work too.
Let me know how it turns out.
Glad the fam loves your creations :)

This is absolutely delicious! I finally got to make it for dinner. It is creamy and mild, and soothing. I love it, and will be making it on a regular basis!
Weird, I know....but I was wondering the other day what a raw foodie would eat if they were sick, and wanted comfort food. Now I know! Thanks again for another yummy, simple, instantly gratifying (no waiting for dehydration, not lots of prep time) recipe!

I think soothing is a PERFECT way to describe this recipe. It is a total comfort food feeling for me too. Glad you like :)

Sweet Laura Jane...you mentioned my name in your post! I will be making this for my lunch, (and maybe putting some of it on my kelp noodles) and will report back on how it was. Thanks for getting it up asap! You are a doll!
