Mushroom pickers know that soup made from wild mushrooms often turns out dark, if not black. However, the taste does not change.
You need to know which mushrooms give such a rich color. These are mainly aspen mushrooms and birch boletes. We will tell you what can be done in this case.
Soup made from fresh mushrooms will not turn black if you know how to cook mushrooms correctly.
Firstly, if the aspen mushrooms are fresh, they will instantly change the colour of the soup, as they themselves start to turn blue after being cut.
Therefore, experienced cooks often cook the first course from porcini mushrooms, honey mushrooms or chanterelles.
Secondly, if there are no other supplies, then first you need to boil the mushrooms themselves, then drain the water in which they were boiled and continue cooking in new water. You can make the soup taste richer and more mushroomy if you add processed cheese with mushroom flavor.
Thirdly, to prevent the mushrooms themselves from turning black, they should be cooked in salted water during cooking, to which one tablespoon of vinegar should also be added.
