NOTES

This recipe makes the equivalent of 2 cans of cream of chicken (or mushroom or celery) soup. Keep in mind that this recipe is condensed so if the recipe calls for a cream of chicken, mushroom, or celery soup continue to add water or chicken stock to reconstitute it.

This substitute does have a slight chicken flavor because of the chicken broth used, but you can add more chicken bouillon to flavor it or shredded chicken if you want to have more chicken flavor. Also if you are replacing a cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup in a recipe, you will want to add cooked mushrooms, celery, or celery salt to the recipe.

Most cans of “cream of” soup are 10 1/2 ounces which is equivalent to about 1 1/3 cups.
