Instructions

  • Sautee celery, carrots, bacon and onions in butter over medium-high heat, in a large soup pot. About 4-5 minutes.
  • When vegetables have begun to soften and develop a little color, stir in mushrooms, rosemary and garlic paste. Cook for 2-3 more minutes, making sure to not burn the garlic.
