(*) yes, the recipe calls for tinned mushrooms, which I only realized when they spoke of the mushroom water (**) soup seasoning is just a mix of glutamat, much salt and some spices, a still :-( much used 'enhancer' of soups (***) gravy sauce is used either for thickening of self-made sauces or on its own when one does not have any fond. It is basically a dark roux with also mostly too much salt and some spices.
