MINNESOTA CREAM OF WILD RICE SOUP

 

2 c. cooked wild rice

1 lg. onion, diced

1/2 green pepper, diced

1 1/2 ribs celery, diced

2 lg. fresh mushrooms, diced

8 c. hot vegetable broth

Salt & pepper to taste

1 c. light cream or half & half

 

Prepare the wild rice according to package or basic

directions.

 

Saute the onion, green pepper, celery and mushrooms in

the butter about 3 minutes or just until vegetables

soften. Sprinkle in the flour, stirring and

cooking until flour is mixed in, but do not let it

begin to brown. Slowly whisk in the vegetable stock,

whisking until all the flour-butter-vegetable mixture

is blended well. Add the rice and season to taste with

salt and pepper. Heat thoroughly, stir in the cream.

Heat gently, but do not boil.
