1 cup hot water
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped

Reconstitute dried mushrooms in hot water. Heat oil in a soup pot,
add onion, and cook it until it has caramelized, being careful not
to allow it to burn. Add remaining ingredients, including
reconstituted mushrooms, bring to a boil, and then simmer for 45
minutes. Strain and use, or reduce further to intensify flavor.
