Follow The Directions

01

Step

3 mins

Melt butter in the Instant Pot set to Saute mode. Add mushrooms and saute for 3 minutes until softened. Add garlic and stir until fragrant.

02

Step

18 mins

Slowly pour in chicken stock, deglazing any browned bits from the pot's bottom. Bring to a simmer.

03

Step

5 mins

Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure and set the timer for 3 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

04

Step

5 mins

In a bowl, whisk together heavy cream and flour until smooth, creating a slurry.

05

Step

Carefully release pressure using the quick-release method, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.

06

Step

Pour cream slurry into the soup, stirring to combine. Switch to Saute mode and stir until the soup thickens slightly.

07

Step

Season with garlic salt, thyme, and pepper to taste. Adjust seasonings as needed.

For a deeper flavor, consider using a mix of wild mushrooms along with cremini.
If you prefer a thinner soup, reduce the amount of flour in the slurry.
Garnish with a swirl of cream, fresh herbs like parsley or chives, or a sprinkle of truffle oil for an extra touch of elegance.
Adjust the amount of garlic to suit your personal preference. Roasted garlic can also be used for a sweeter, more mellow flavor.
