Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 c. uncooked wild rice (I prefer the whole grain style, not the cracked)
1/2 c. unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 carrots, sliced into 1/4? thick coins
8 oz. fresh button mushrooms, sliced

4 c. cooked and coarsely shredded turkey or chicken
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • First off, you'll want to get your wild rice cooking, so it's ready to add to the finished soup. Prepare according to the package instructions. (It takes awhile - the instructions on my bag says to cook it for 55 minutes.) The remainder of the recipe can be made in one stock pot. Start by melting the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, mushrooms, and garlic. Stir well and saute until the onion is transparent and softened. Blend in flour, cooking until it bubbles a bit. Gradually add the broth, stirring constantly. Turn up the heat a bit and bring the soup to a low boil. Boil for 1 minute.

Stir in the fresh lemon juice and taste test to see if it needs more salt and pepper. Serve with crackers or warm bread.

SARASOTA'S MINNESOTA TURKEY, MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE SOUP



Sarasota's Minnesota Turkey, Mushroom and Wild Rice Soup image

This was a classic growing up. A little creamy, all fresh ingredients, mushrooms from a local farmer, and wild rice from a friend who was from MN, but rented one of our cottages every summer and always brought tons of MN Wild Rice. Now if you don't have turkey leftovers (which I almost always do), use chicken which will work just fine. But there is something about the turkey that is just perfect with this. If I don't have leftover turkey, I often buy a small turkey breast just so I can make this soup, and use the rest for sandwiches. And no turkey stock? ... chicken stock or broth is fine. Just don't skimp on a few things. 1) Sherry wine, 2) REAL wild rice, 3) fresh vegetables and, mushrooms, and; 4) fresh herbs. It just isn't the same otherwise. I can have just a bowl of this for dinner or it makes a great starter, or wonderful with just a salad or grilled sandwich.

Provided by SarasotaCook

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 bowls of soup, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups cooked turkey, diced (you can substitute chicken)
1 1/3 cups wild rice, uncooked
4 cups mushrooms, thin sliced (I use a mix of cremini, button, shitaki, morel, etc. Just don't use one, mix it up)
2 large sweet onions, cut in quarters and thin sliced (2 cups)
1 leek, thin sliced
1 small fennel bulb, cut in half and thin sliced
1 1/2 cups celery including celery leaves, thin sliced
3 teaspoons minced garlic
6 cups turkey broth, more if you like the soup a bit thinner (chicken is fine)
1/2 cup sherry wine
3/4-1 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, fine chopped
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, fine chopped
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, fine chopped
2 tablespoons butter
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Soup Base -- In a large pot, melt the butter and add the leeks, onions, celery, fennel and garlic and cook on medium heat until slightly translucent and soft. About 5 minutes.
  • Rice -- Add the rice right to the vegetable mixture and stir until well combined - then add the broth (start with 5 cups; you can always add more as the rice cooks), thyme, rosemary, worcestershire and bay leaf. Cover and cook on low heat (simmer) approximately 30 minutes until the rice is somewhat tender. Once again, taste for seasoning (salt and pepper) and add more broth if necessary. It depends on how thin or thick you like your soup. The soup still has a bit more time to cook which will allow the rice to finish cooking.
  • Mushrooms -- At this point, add the sherry wine and mushrooms and continue to cook another 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the mushrooms are soft.
  • Finish -- Everything is done - Now to finish off the soup. First, add in the turkey or chicken; and add the heavy cream to the soup. Increase the heat to medium and bring to a light boil and then reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes. Stir and add in any additional seasoning if necessary and the fresh parsley.
  • Serve -- My favorite way to serve this is with a toasted baguette with melted gruyere cheese. Now, if you happen to have truffle oil -- drizzle a little on top, it is heaven. Can't get much better than that! ENJOY!

3 large carrots, peeled and sliced
1 large onion, diced
2 sticks celery, sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
12 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 cup long grain rice
3 1/2 cups cooked and shredded chicken meat
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

  • Add the chicken and pepper and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Add the chopped parsley. Add salt to taste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right turkey: Look for a turkey that is fresh or frozen, not thawed. A fresh turkey will have a pinkish hue to the skin and no signs of bruising or discoloration. A frozen turkey should be thawed in the refrigerator for 24 hours per 5 pounds.
  • Cook the turkey properly: The best way to cook a turkey is to roast it in the oven. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and cook the turkey for 13 minutes per pound.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will help the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some good choices include crackers, bread, and grated cheese.

Conclusion:

Turkey and rice soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover turkey from Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and nutritious soup that the whole family will enjoy.
