Mushrooms are a star ingredient during winter.
Now that winter is nearly at its end I want to celebrate them by making a nice
mushrooms soup.
Mushrooms have no fats, no cholesterol, very low carbohydrates, high proteins,
vitamins and minerals, a lot of water and fiber.
Shiitake mushrooms, in particular, contain the compound lentinan that,
not only helps boost your immune system, but can also help prevent cancer.
Is this enough to make you try this delicious soup?
