Wild Mushroom Soup

In the fall we always go mushroom picking, I have done this from a very young age. I remember bringing abundance of mushrooms and grandma preparing them for soup. Soup never tasted as good as when it had the mushrooms we picked.

Wild mushrooms are sold in many organic stores and recently I have seen some at Costco.

PS: If you decide to go mushroom hunting, be sure to have good identification skills as some can be deadly.
