Steps:
- Measure out heavy cream and let it sit at room temperature while you prepare soup. Or, prepare cashew cream, if using (see notes for instructions). Heat oil and butter in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion, carrots, and celery, and cook for 8 minutes, or until softened.
- Add mushrooms and garlic, and stir to combine. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring only occasionally, until the mushrooms are soft and slightly golden.
- Add rice and stir to coat. Let the rice cook for 1 to 2 minutes to lightly toast the grains. Stir in poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Add broth and 1 cup of water; stir well. Bring the mixture to a low boil, cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
- Remove the lid and stir in the heavy cream (or cashew cream). Gradually sprinkle in the Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously to avoid clumping, until all is combined. Remove from heat and ladle into bowls.

WILD RICE MUSHROOM SOUP
I think mushrooms often get used only as a seasoning or added flavor, but I think they are delicious enough to be the main part of a meal. This recipe uses a large quantity of mushrooms and the result is delicious. Even though this contains some dairy, it freezes quite well! -Wendy Campbell, New Wilmington, Pennsylvania

MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE SOUP
Steps:
- In a spice mill or coffee grinder, pulse the porcini to a fine powder. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup water to a boil. Add the salt and wild rice. Cover; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Drain; set aside.
- In a large saucepan, heat half the oil over medium-high heat. Add half the mushrooms; season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and tender, about 7 minutes; transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining oil and mushrooms.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Melt the butter; add the leeks. Cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the mushroom powder; cook 1 minute. Add the sherry and soy sauce; cook 1 minute more.
- Add the stock to the pot; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms; return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook 20 minutes. Stir in the wild rice, cream, and parsley; adjust seasoning, and serve.
Tips:
- Use flavorful mushrooms. Wild mushrooms, such as chanterelles, morels, and porcini, have a more intense flavor than button mushrooms. If you can't find wild mushrooms, use a combination of cremini and shiitake mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms before adding them to the soup. This will help to concentrate their flavor and give them a slightly chewy texture.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and made with real vegetables.
- Add some herbs and spices to taste. Common herbs and spices used in wild rice and mushroom soup include thyme, rosemary, sage, and black pepper. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
- Let the soup simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
Conclusion:
Wild rice and mushroom soup is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover wild rice. With its earthy flavor and creamy texture, this soup is sure to please everyone at your table.
