Procedure
0. Make a small cut in the chestnut skin and boil them in water for about 20-25 minutes, until soft but still firm. Drain them, let them cool slightly, and remove the skin and inner skin.
1. If using dried porcini mushrooms, soak them in hot water for about 20 minutes, then drain and slice them. If using fresh porcini mushrooms, gently clean them and slice them.
2. In a saucepan, heat the olive oil and add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté over medium heat until translucent.
3. Add the porcini mushrooms and potato and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add the boiled and peeled chestnuts and stir to combine the flavors.
4. Pour the vegetable broth into the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
5. Use an immersion blender to obtain a smooth and creamy soup. If necessary, add a little broth or water to adjust the consistency.
6. Taste and season with salt and pepper. If you prefer a richer consistency, you can stir the cream into the soup before serving.
7. Pour the cream soup into bowls, add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and, if you like, a touch of fresh cream or Greek yogurt for a visual effect and a delicate flavor.
