gluten-free Condensed Cream Soup

[anerissara]

There may be a something just like this already on this board, but I just figured out a great gluten-free condensed cream of mushroom soup knock-off I wanted to share.

heat 3 tbsp of cream cheese up, add 1 3/4 cups milk, and whisk in 3 tbsp. of rice flour and salt to taste (if you want it close to the real thing, you unfortunately have to add a lot of salt). Stir constantly over medium heat until bubbly, keep stirring until the mixture gets very thick. You can then add mushroom chuncks or whatever you want to flavor it with. I added parmisan cheese (1/4 cup) and it really added to the flavor.

I haven't tried yet, but I would think you could maybe put this into zip-lock bags in 2 cup servings and freeze it, then thaw them out when you need a can of soup.

thank you very much, I miss cream of mushroom soup so much, i always used the one with roasted garlic.. the gluten-free ones are so thin and watery

this is a TNT recipe?

*blush* I have to admit to having no idea as to what TNT is....could you fill me in? I'm no so up these things lately.

Someone else posted a yummy looking cream soup recipe at Open Original Shared Link

this one looks more involved but tastier than the one I posted, which is good for a condensed soup substitute in other recipes but wouldn't be good as an actual soup.

Yea! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

I've made the recipe as a sauce for another dish, but it hadn't occured to me to use it as a soup substitute until the other day. The texture was just so much like the condensed soup that I can't believe I didn't think of it before!

I'll try it with garlic, yum!
