Recipe



Instructions

1. Soak the dried mushrooms in hot water for at least 2 hours. Wash the watercress, discarding any damaged or discolored leaves. Separate the leaves from the stems, and put them in two bowls.

2. Reserve 2-4 whole button mushrooms for garnish and chop the remainder finely. Combine the chopped mushrooms in a saucepan with the Vegetable, chicken or beef stock.

3. Drain the liquid from the dried mushrooms into a small bowl, and then squeeze the dried mushrooms over the bowl to extract their juice. Discard the dried mushrooms.

4. Add the dried mushroom juice and watercress stems to the consomm�. Bring to the boil, and strain off any froth that comes to the top. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, adding freshly ground black pepper, and lemon juice, to taste.

5. Strain the consomm� into soup bowls and garnish each serving with a few slices of fresh, raw mushroom and watercress leaves.
