CHEF'S NOTE

Recipe by Alex Hoefer.

This is a recipe that offers flavor and comfort and is vegetable forward. In the restaurant we typically steep dries porchini mushrooms in the stock to offer even more umami and mushroom flavor.It is also delicious made with wild foraged mushrooms like chanterell and oysters or even morels (which we don’t see a lot in the hot south). A squeeze of lemon juice can be added if desired as well.
