This came from the Seattle Times. In reference to the single teaspoon of
tomato paste, I've been buying tomato paste in a tube. You use as much as
you need and store the tube indefinitely in the refrigerator. Much better
than those little cans when all you need is a small amount.
1. Place the dried mushrooms in a small bowl and cover with 1 C. heated
broth. Let sit 20 minutes. Drain, reserving the liquid. Chop the mushrooms,
discarding any tough parts. Set aside.
2. In a large pan, melt the butter and the olive oil over med. heat. Add
the leeks and garlic, sauteing for 5 minutes. Add the button mushrooms and
the shiitake mushrooms, all the broth and the remaining ingredients except
the yogurt and parsley. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered for
20 minutes or longer.
3. Roughly puree half the soup with the yogurt in a blender or processor.
Put it back into the pan, place over low heat, add the parsley and heat
through.
