Mushroom Soup  ~  Jimmy's Gotcha

Jimmy's Gotcha was a restaurant in Marblehead Ohio. One rainy cold day when we were in that area closing our summer home and winterizing the boat, we stopped by for lunch. The daily special was a delicious Mushroom Soup. Jimmy shared his tasty recipe with me.
Ingredients:

Saute in butter;

onion

Sliced or diced mushrooms

add flour to make a roux

Add chicken broth and 1/2 & 1/2

Season with

thyme, 

tiny pinch

dry mustard, 

tiny pinch Garlic salt or a whole garlic clove  

salt

white pepper

Directions:

Saute in butter onion till translucent, then add mushrooms,   When mushrooms have sautéed and the liquid is evaporated add flour to make a roux and stir in gradually the chicken broth to make the roux smooth.  Add chicken broth and 1/2 & 1/2.  Season with thyme, dry mustard and whole garlic clove or garlic salt and white pepper.

TIP...By using a whole garlic clove the flavor is more sweet and not strong.
