Barak is Better Mushroom Soup, but Just A Little
Yeah, I'll say it. Barak Obama is barely better than Hillary Clinton. But he inspires a really nice soup.
Start with 2 Tablespoons of butter. This was adapted from an Anthony Bourdain recipe, by the way.
Melt it and sautee half an onion in it until translucent.
Then add 4 more Tablespoons of butter and a bunch of mushrooms. Sweat it all for 10 minutes.


Add 4 cups of chicken stock. I use Swanson's Organic because it was tested best by America's Test Kitchen.

Also add some parsley.

Bring to a boil and let simmer for 1 hour.
Then, take out your hand blender and blend.
Bring it back to a simmer and add 2 ounces sherry.

It is really good. Much better than Barak Obama.
