Warming and brothy, this is an easy vegetarian winter soup you'll return to again and again. You can safely double or triple this recipe for leftovers or to freeze—or both. We suggest using two types of mushrooms for the texture and flavor variation, but you can experiment with various combinations (just use a total of 12 ounces) to find the taste that you like you like best. Shiitake mushrooms have an earthy flavor. They do have woody stem that’s too tough to eat, so you’ll need to remove those, but the caps are wonderfully tender. Cremini mushrooms, which may be labeled baby bella or baby portobella, have a browner color, firmer texture, and a more robust flavor than white mushrooms.
