Porcini Mushroom Soup
This soup can be made with Sliced Porcini we sell in 3/4oz. bags or in bulk. Here at home we use the Porcini Pieces we sell in the Specials section of our web site.

1 1/2oz Dried Porcini Mushrooms
1 cup diced celery
3/4 cup diced onion
1 stick butter (cut in half)
1 tbls Mushroom Garlic seasoning
1 tbls flour
1 quart Half & Half
salt and pepper

Put the dried mushrooms in a container and add 2 cups hot water, set aside.
In a soup pot melt 1/2 stick butter, add onion and sauté a few minutes until onion turns clear. Add celery and cook 2 minutes more.
Drain mushrooms, reserving liquid,  rinse them in a colander and add to onion and celery. Add 1 cup of the mushroom water, careful not to get any sediment. 
Add half & half and bring to boil, stirring constantly. Melt the other 1/2 cube of butter,  in a small bowl the microwave, (don't get it too hot) mix in the flour and Mushroom Garlic seasoning to make a Rue. Add it to the soup and mix it in toughly, lower the fire to simmer  add  salt and pepper to taste. Ready to serve in 15 to 20 minutes.
