Ingredients per serving

  • 0.8 oz enoki mushrooms
  • 0.2 cups Cashews
  • 0.2 oz thyme
  • 0.1 lb mixed mushrooms
  • 0.1 oz Onions
  • 0.1 cup Madeira wine
  • 0.1 oz truffle oil
  • 0.1 tsp lecithin

Method

1. In a large saucepan, sauté the finely chopped onion over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. 2. Add the mixed mushrooms and thyme to the pan, cook for another 8-10 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and have released their moisture. 3. Pour in the Madeira wine and reduce the liquid by half, stirring occasionally, which should take about 5-7 minutes. 4. While the mixture is reducing, blend the soaked cashews with 2 cups of water until smooth to create a cashew cream. 5. Add the cashew cream to the mushroom mixture and bring to a simmer. Cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soup thickens. 6. Remove from heat and blend the soup using an immersion blender or transfer to a regular blender in batches until smooth. 7. Strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot to ensure a velvety texture. 8. To make the cashew-cream foam, mix 1 cup of reserved cashew cream with lecithin and blend well. Transfer to an iSi siphon, charge with one N2O charger, and shake vigorously. 9. In a small pan, sauté the enoki mushrooms until crispy, about 3-4 minutes over high heat. 10. Ladle the mushroom velouté into espresso cups, top with a spoonful of cashew-cream foam from the siphon, and finish with a drop of truffle oil and crispy enoki mushrooms.
