Mushroom and Miso Cappucino

[Guest guest]

When I got up this morning, I noticed that the minestrone soup I'd sent

yesterday came about 4 this morning, and while noticing that, another I posted

yesterday - Lion's Head Soup - showed up! I realize my ISP is lousy, but a 24

hr delay!

NOTES : This intense puree of shitake and white mushrooms demonstrates another

way to enjoy miso in soups. The mushrooms contribute flavor and a creamy

consistency to this lush soup. Sipped from a cup, it is like a savory

cappucino.
