CHESTNUT & PORCINI SOUP
This recipe comes from Hugh Acheson, of the restaurants Five & Ten and The National in Athens, Georgia. Acheson: "This soup marries three flavors I love: chestnuts, sherry and porcini. They just work brilliantly together. If you cannot find fresh porcini, use frozen; if you cannot find frozen use dried; if you cannot find dried, use shiitakes; if you can't find shiitakes you should consider lobbying for better shopping in your neighborhood. You should be able to find chestnuts at your local farmers market if you are located on the East Coast. If not, conventional grocery stores have cans of roasted and peeled chestnuts, just be sure that you do not get water chestnuts."

Steps:
- Place a heavy soup pot or rondeau over medium heat. Add the butter to the pot and when the butter begins to bubble and froth, add the onions and celery and sweat down for 10 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and sauté for 10 minutes. Once the mushrooms are sautéed down a fair bit add the sherry and reduce for 5 minutes.
- Add potato and chestnuts to pan and cook for 10 more minutes. At this point you add the chicken stock, the bouquet and the bay leaf and cover. Cook until potato is tender, about 15 minutes.
- While still on heat add the cream. Remove bouquet and bay leaves using a slotted spoon or tongs. Remove soup from heat.
- Season the soup and then carefully puree it in a blender. Pass through a fine chinois for a smoother texture.

Steps:
- In a heatproof bowl, pour the hot water over the porcini mushrooms and soak for 30 minutes.
- In a large, wide-bottomed saucepan over high heat, warm 2 Tbs. of the oil and melt the butter. Add the button and shiitake mushrooms and sauté, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden and tender and the liquid has nearly evaporated, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the remaining 1 Tbs. oil to the pan with the mushrooms, then add the onion and garlic. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and golden, 6 to 8 minutes more. Add the thyme and sauté 1 minute more.
- Strain the porcini through a fine-mesh sieve, reserving the soaking liquid and the porcini. Add the soaking liquid to the mushroom-onion mixture along with the vinegar, stock and cream. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Using a stick blender, puree the soup until smooth and blended. Season with salt and pepper. Chop the porcini coarsely and stir into the soup. Ladle into warmed soup bowls and garnish each serving with a pinch of chopped chives. Serves 8.

CREAMY PORCINI SOUP
This is a very nice creamy soup rich with an earthy and somewhat nutty flavor. I quickly threw it together without thought and the results were stunning! Porcini Mushrooms are the king of all mushrooms. Italian chefs affectionately refer to the Porcini (the piglet) as a ruling class of the delicious fungi. The meaty texture and concentrated flavor will wow your taste buds and have you going back for more! Enjoy! This recipe is great for those on a low carb diet!!

Steps:
- Place dried porcini mushrooms into the water and soak for at least one hour. (I personally soaked them over night so they are ready for lunch.) Do NOT drain the water as this will be the bases of your soup.
- Once the mushrooms have reconstituted, melt sweet cream butter in a sauce pan over medium heat.
- Add the diced sweet onions and garlic. Sauté until the onions lose their opacity (but do not allow to brown.).
- Add the reconstituted mushrooms along with the flavored water.
- Place both cubes into the mixture and allow the soup to come to a slight boil.
- Gently add the heavy whipping cream while stirring.
- Bring soup back to a gentle boil.
- Soups on!
