It’s thick and creamy and it’ll be the perfect addition to all those dairy dinners ahead.
There is a restaurant in Israel called Alfredo, where they serve this soup in bread bowls. It’s that real, creamy dairy mushroom soup you always love to order at restaurants…but now you can enjoy it at home.
And, yes! This freezes well so you can even make it now and freeze after blending in step 4. Add milk/cornstarch mixture and cheese fresh.

Sounds delish! Could almond milk be subbed for the milk? (No subs for the heavy cream, but perhaps the almond milk could make it better for lactose intolerant family members?
Actually, used goat milk, no problem and an excellent receipe!!
This sounds awesome. Could you tell me approximately how many servings this makes?
Thanks
Is 8 oz parmesan the correct amount? That’s more than two containers from most frum brands, which seems like an awful lot for one soup! I made a half recipe and used just a couple tablespoons because I was worried about going overboard.
Great! It appears like a lot for just one soup, since that’s more than two containers from most frum brands.
How can the crisp topping be adapted to be vegan?
