Mushroom Soup
It was -30 degrees out at the time I made this Hmong mushroom soup. It was definitely soup time and this just hit the spot. This simple soup consists of a variety of mushrooms simmered with lemongrass, chilies, cilantro, and culantro. Once you bring the pot of water to boil, the soup is ready in 10 minutes.
