Chicken and Wild Rice Soup

I would describe this as a cream of chicken soup with wild rice. The flavor is mild and the texture is creamy. If you prefer a really thick soup, like some New England clam chowders, you'll enjoy this soup. Those who prefer a thinner broth might want to use half the flour, or leave it out altogether. It also thickens and it stands; so expect to add more stock if you plan to reheat it later.
I prefer a thin milky broth, like my own version of New England Clam Chowder, one of my all-time favorite soups. You can see that video here:

a couple times i bought wild rice from an indian reservation (via the internet) in minnesota, i think of it often and want to buy it again. it wasnt cheap! you used a handful of methods to thicken this soup so im not surprised if it ended up a bit too thick. i think the white rice was the killer, it will become overcooked no matter what you do (because it is going to stay in the liquid) and reach congee level thickness quickly. there is a deli near my house and does homemade soups and this very much looks like one of theirs! your stock always looks amazing, you ought to sell it. ill take a barrel!

I suspect the original recipe was written with the idea to serve this soup immediately, not let it stand for a while. Most of it is portioned and in the freezer. I'm curious to see what the rice will look like when I heat it. Maybe this evening. -Dennis

This looks incredible. I get what you mean about the broth, just like your New England Clam Chowder, which uses a thinner broth (which is apparently the amount of thickening is varies throughout the New England area, as I know you are aware, those of us on the west coast tend to think of Clam Chowders as always being super thick). I look forward to making this.

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Thanks Eric. The next time I make this I will leave out the flour. You've seen I have cooked flour in the cupboard in case I need to thicken something at the last minute. Otherwise, it's a delicious soup. -Dennis

I've never used wild rice didn't know it had too cook longer than white , I love my rice cooker ,nice and creamy soup has always been my choice for doups ,sat video

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Thanks Eric. Yeah, wild rice is a little different. It actually isn't rice at all. It's edible grass seed. And, like brown rice, it takes longer to cook. I don't use it often, but it does add a little something extra to some foods. -Dennis

Thanks Jane. It is a delicious soup, very "Yum!!!" worthy. -Dennis

[@dustinhsiao3681]

That looks great! It's always nice to see one of your videos. Where did you get that interesting glass lid with the handle on the side?

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Thanks Dustin. The lids came with the pans. They're Calphalon space saving pans I bought at Costco. Everything stacks on one shelf. -Dennis

[@dustinhsiao3681]

@@MobileHomeGourmet Ah, that sounds very handy indeed! I've never seen lids like that. Thanks for the reply, Dennis!

[@taylorkidd8685]

Wow, Dennis! This looks delightful. But I’m shocked to see your pedestrian salt container! Where is your fancy rectilinear SALT box!?

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Thanks Taylor. I try to think about that salt box, but if I fail to plan for it (I keep it in a different cupboard) I simply grab the salt shaker. It's closer. -Dennis

[@Careful3890]

Use your instant pot! 👍

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Thanks Charina. I could have. That would have worked too. -Dennis
