Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1.5 cup wild rice blend
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion chopped
3 stalks celery chopped
3 medium carrots peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
6 cup vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream
0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
0.25 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 cup fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions

Preparation Steps

Rinse the wild rice blend under cold water. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the rinsed wild rice blend, vegetable broth, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until the wild rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
Stir in the heavy cream and heat through gently. Do not boil after adding the cream.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
