CHICKEN WILD RICE SOUP
I'm originally from Minnesota, where wild rice grows in abundance and is very popular in recipes. This creamy chicken and wild rice soup has been part of our Christmas Eve menu for years. To save time, I cook the chicken and wild rice and cut up the vegetables the day before. -Virginia Montmarquet, Riverside, California

SHERRIED CREAM OF CHICKEN AND WILD RICE SOUP
You will need a large stock pot for this soup. This recipie has morphed from the original (which is so old I don't know where I got it from). I don't like a lot of fat in my cooking, but if you don't like 24 oz of evaporated skim milk, you can substitute 36 oz. of half and half. I also reduced the amount of butter from the original recipie from 1/2 cup to 1/4 cup. So if you want it richer, just add more butter or half and half. The easiest way to get the cooked chicken and the 7 cups of broth is to make your own chicken broth using chicken pieces. However, if you don't have home made broth on hand, just use cooked chicken and canned broth or bullion cubes.

SHERRIED WILD RICE SOUP
Nutty and wonderful! Serves 8 as a main dish or 12 pre-dinner sized servings. Note: I use shiitake mushrooms, which are wonderful, and since they are large, I dice them.

Steps:
- Thoroughly wash rice and place in a heavy saucepan with water and salt. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, until tender but not too soft; about 45 minutes. Fluff with a fork and simmer another 5 minutes, uncovered. Drain well.
- Wash and trim leeks, leaving some of the green part. Chop leeks and mushrooms and saute in butter in a large saucepan until just tender; about 3 minutes. Stirring with a wooden spoon, sprinkle in flour and cook 1 minute. Slowly add chicken broth, blending well, and then rice. Stir with a whisk until thickened, then blend in cream and sherry. Remove from heat before it comes to a boil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Sprinkle each serving with minced parsley.
PRESSURE COOKER MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE SOUP
This comforting soup tastes long-simmered, but it's cooked in a pressure cooker, which makes it a weeknight possibility (though you could also make this recipe in a slow cooker). Use any variety of mushrooms you like: Cremini (also called baby bella) are affordable and easy to find and work well, or you can add shiitake or oyster mushrooms for a mix of texture and flavors. Don't worry about removing small, supple stems, but discard any that are tough or dried-out. Wild rice isn't a true rice at all but the seed of a grass that's native to North America. When it's cooked, it should be pleasantly chewy and nutty, not hard, and most of the grains should be slightly split open to reveal their creamy insides.

Steps:
- Turn on the sauté setting on a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker. Melt the butter, then add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and shrunk a bit, about 8 minutes. Add the celery, carrot, chopped garlic, thyme, garlic powder and several generous grinds of black pepper. Stir to combine. Add the flour and stir until the vegetables are evenly coated and no white spots remain.
- Pour in the stock and wine, and turn off the heat. Scrape the bottom of the pot very well to incorporate flour and any browned bits that are stuck to the bottom. (This will add flavor and also prevent a burn warning later.) Stir in the wild rice.
- Cook on high pressure for 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the pressure reduce naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually.
- Stir the soup and check the texture of the wild rice; if it needs a bit more time repeat the pressure cooking process for a cook time of 2 minutes and rapidly release the pressure. Check the texture of the soup; if you'd like it to be thicker, turn on the sauté function and let the soup simmer to reduce to desired consistency. Turn off the heat.
- Put the sour cream in a small bowl and slowly whisk in a few spoonfuls of warm soup until smooth, then stir the mixture into the soup. (This prevents the sour cream from separating.) Taste the soup and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the soup in bowls topped with chopped scallions or chives and dill. Reheat any leftovers on low until warm. (Boiling can cause the sour cream to break.)

A slight variation on a recipe I received from a fellow Minnesota farm wife. A delicious soup that can also easily be cooked in a slow cooker and freezes well.
