This stuff is SOOOOO good, and embarrassingly easy to make. I used the evaporated milk because I didn’t have heavy cream in the house, and it wasRead more about Best Homemade Mushroom Soup![…]
My good friend Bobby has this wonderful habit of sending me mouth-watering recipes that he comes across (on an almost daily basis, mind you) and this one really caught my eye: it’s from Eatly, the huge foodie’s market in New York City.
