Christmas Mushroom Soup by Pavel Berky

Place dried mushrooms in a bowl, pour approximately 300 ml of water over them, and let them soak overnight.

In a pot, add 2 tbsp of butter and let it foam. Add finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent.

Add the chopped sausage, mushrooms with their soaking liquid, and approximately 1 liter of water to the pot. Add bay leaves, finely chopped garlic, season with salt and pepper, and let it cook for 20 - 30 minutes.
