  Serves 4
  
  4 cups water
  2-3 tbsp. vinegar
  small pinch of salt
  4 small potatoes
  handful of dried mushrooms
  caraway
  1 tbsp. butter
  1 tbsp. flour
  ½ cup heavy cream
  salt
  pinch of sugar
  4 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
  
  To a small stockpot, add the water, vinegar, salt and bring to a boil.
  
  Add crushed handful of mushrooms, peeled and chopped potatoes, caraway, and simmer until everything is tender.
  
  In a saucepan, over low heat, make a light roux from the butter and flour. Slowly pour in the cream, and add the salt and sugar. Simmer on low just until combined.
  
  Add the cream sauce to the mushroom broth, and whisk together to combine. Ladle the soup into bowls, and top with slices of hard-boiled egg.
