• Clean mushrooms by either blotting with paper towel or using small brush. Mushrooms should not be washed with water as they will darken. Chop into large pieces.
• Melt the butter in a sauce pan and place on the stove over a medium heat; add the onion and sauté slightly, then add the mushrooms and stir until soft.
• Set aside a small portion of the mushroom mixture to use later as a garnish.
• Add flour to the remaining mushroom mixture; stir until thoroughly mixed. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the stock; stirring continuously.
• Place over a medium heat, and cover the pan tightly until the mushroom mixture is well cooked.
• Place the mushroom and onion mixture in a blender and blend thickened.
• Add cream before serving. Garnish with the saved mushroom mixture and pieces of vita cheese.
CHEF NOTES
A medium size onion may be used instead of small ones, However, the latter are tastier.
