Wild Rice Soup (family recipe) step by step

  1. Make the wild rice as directed on the package. Usually boil 2 cups of water and add wild rice. Bring to a boil. Turn the heat in low and cover. Stir occasionally for about 30 minutes or until the water is gone..
  2. Fry up your bacon. Make it nice and crispy because you will be adding this to the soup later. I suggest baking your bacon in the oven at °400 degrees until crispy. My bacon always turns out wonderful this way. Set your bacon aside to cool down..
  3. Wash up your mushrooms and chop them up. Put them in a microwave safe bowl. Chop up your onion in the same size and add it to the bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat it 3 times for 2 minutes each time. Stir after every time it finishes. Leave in the microwave..
  4. Put a large pot on medium low heat and put in both cans of the cream of potato soup. Add the half and half and mix together. Gradually add the whipping cream. When it starts to get good and warm go ahead and add the wild rice and then the mushrooms and onion along with the juice in the bowl because that adds alot of flavor. Take your bacon and crumble it into the soup and stir it in. when the soup is hot add the shredded cheddar and stir it in until it's all melted in. The soup should be on the heat for about 45 minutes from start to finish..
