Cream of mushroom soup (in the style of Auguste Escoffier)

Описание: This soup is part of a series of French cuisine roux-based soups called the 'crèmes'. The 'creme' soup uses a light bechamel as a base and is then combined with a vegetable puree. Written recipe: https://bit.ly/3h7Z1ff

The result is a creamy and flavorsome vegetable soup that fails to disappoint. In this tutorial I use mushroom but you can play around using a single vegetable or combination of your liking.
