Sauté until mushrooms are soft and browned, about 5 minutes. Add porcini and sauté 3 minutes. Add 725ml broth and reserved porcini soaking liquid and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer until mushrooms are soft and flavours blend, about 20 minutes. Cool slightly. Working in batches, puree in blender until smooth, adding more broth by 1/2 cupfuls as needed. Return soup to pot.
