Wild Rice Soup

Serves: 5

Print this Recipe

Native Americans called wild rice MAHNOMEN, or "precious grain." This delicacy isn't actually rice but is a grain from an aquatic plant. Cooks have used this native plant in many recipes, this creamy, chowderlike soup being one of the more popular creations.


   2 medium stalks celery, slices (about 1 cup)
   1 medium carrot, coarsely shredded (about 1/2 cup)
   1 medium onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
   1 small green bell peppers, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
   2 tablespoons margarine or butter
   3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
   1 teaspoon salt
   1/4 teaspoon pepper
   1 1/2 cups cooked wild rice
   1 cup water
   1 (10 1/2-ounce) can condensed chicken broth
   1 cup half and half
   1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted
   1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley


1. Cook and stir celery, carrot, onion and bell pepper in margarine in 3-quart saucepan until celery is tender, about 5 minutes.

2. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Stir in wild rice, water and broth. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat just until hot (do not boil).
