  4. While stirring constantly, gradually add chicken stock mixture and Worcestershire to Dutch oven. Bring to a simmer over medium-high; reduce heat to medium-low, and stir in reserved fresh and rehydrated mushrooms. simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and flavor meld, about 15 minutes. Stir in heavy cream.
