POTATO RICE SOUP



Potato Rice Soup image

Very thick and filling and inexpensive; I've made it too often to remember its origin now. Tastes almost like it's made with milk but it isn't. You may wish to spice it up to taste; dh prefers his this way. Doubles well. Warning! A friend liked it enough that she decided to try it in the crockpot...it became so thick that it was basically a solid chunk, lol; the serving spoon stood upright! Stick to the stovetop and you'll be happier with this economical winter soup. ;o)

CREAMY SWEET POTATO AND WILD RICE SOUP



Creamy Sweet Potato and Wild Rice Soup image

Wonderful flavored sweet potato soup. Bake the potatoes before hand. They should be done well enough that the skin just slips off. Ditto for the wild rice. This shortens the cooking time and doesn't hurt the soup at all. The original was from the Veg. Journal.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add depth of flavor to your soup. Consider using a mix of wild mushrooms, such as shiitake, chanterelle, and oyster mushrooms, for a truly unique flavor.
  • Don't overcook the rice. Wild rice is a bit more delicate than white rice, so it's important to not overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy and lose its texture.
  • Add some fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and sage, can add a nice touch of flavor to your soup. Stir them in just before serving.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread. Crusty bread is the perfect accompaniment to this hearty soup. It's great for sopping up all the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Wild rice and potato soup is a delicious and hearty soup that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful soup, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
