Notes: Recipe Courtesy of Sam McGann Chef and Founder of the Blue Point Restaurant in Duck, NC where my mother and I enjoyed many fall luncheons on her visits to see me in Coastal North Carolina. Sam's notes: I enjoy the texture of the sliced mushrooms in the soup. If you prefer a smoother texture simply puree the soup upon its completion. The use of an assortment of mushrooms such as Shiitakes, Criminis and Portobellas, if available, will add depth and complexity to this soup.
