The name says it all! For an even richer flavor, you can reduce the amount of whole milk and replace part of it with heavy cream. Garnish with chopped fresh chives.

Number Of Ingredients 10

⅓ cup wild rice
1 cup water
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter
¾ cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
¼ cup all-purpose flour

I'm allergic to mushrooms, so I substituted them with chopped carrots. The soup still turned out great!

This soup is really good, but it's a bit too time-consuming to make for a weeknight meal.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out really watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup is a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needs more seasoning.
