Tips For Making Polish Mushroom Soup

Make It With Noodles Or Potatoes.

Of course, you can add both. It’s easier to throw the raw noodles or potatoes straight to the soup and cook until soft. However, you can cook them separately.

Use Fresh Or Dried Mushrooms.

It takes a bit longer to make Polish mushroom soup from dried mushrooms, as you need to soak them in water overnight.

Fresh mushrooms need to be diced and fry first.

Sprinkle Polish Mushrooms Soup With Fresh Parsley.

Zupa grzybowa can be sprinkled with fresh, chopped parsley. It will definitely make the soup look even better!

Make It Vegan If You Want.

You can make your Polish mushroom soup vegan! Simply replace butter with oil and use the vegan heavy cream.
