Cream of Mushroom Soup
There is still nothing better than cream of mushroom soup, though now we make it with chopped mushrooms, homemade chicken stock (if we have some on hand), and rich cream. Adding milk taste a whole lot better than adding water. You had to add it slowly, stirring after each addition, to keep it from getting clumpy
