For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of mushroom varieties, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
If you prefer a smoother soup, you can use an immersion blender to partially or fully puree the soup before adding the sour cream.
Adjust the amount of paprika to suit your taste. For a spicier soup, use a hot Hungarian paprika instead of sweet.
This soup is even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
