For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of wild mushrooms. Rehydrated dried porcini mushrooms (soaked in hot water), along with their strained soaking liquid added to the broth, will add an intense umami depth. A splash of dry sherry or white wine added along with the broth can further enhance the stew's complexity. For a non-dairy option, substitute the heavy cream with cashew cream or coconut cream. Note that this may slightly alter the flavor profile. Serve over creamy polenta for a truly comforting meal.
