Oyster Mushroom Soup

This vegetarian oyster mushroom soup is super flavorful and satisfying. It is made with vegetables, herbs and pasta, so can be served as the main course with a salad on the side. You can easily turn it into a gluten-free recipe.

Oyster mushrooms are our favorite type of mushrooms because of their meaty texture and unique flavor. So we love to create recipes with them. And our chicken noodle soup garnished with radishes inspired us when making this mushroom soup.

Looking at the texture of the soup, one might think that it is a chicken or beef soup because the pieces of oyster mushrooms in the soup really look like a type of meat. Especially kids won’t believe it is a vegetarian soup.

As for the taste, it is rich and soooo good thanks to the combination of all the flavors in the pot.

3. If you are looking for a gluten-free soup recipe, omit pasta or use a gluten-free type of pasta.
4. If you want your soup vegan, make sure the pasta you use doesn’t contain eggs. So please read the ingredients label on the package.
