Best Slow Cooker Confetti Wild Rice Soup Recipes

SLOW COOKER MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE SOUP

Steps:

• Put the butter in a microwave-safe container (a liquid measuring cup works well) and microwave until the butter is completely melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. With a fork, whisk the flour into the butter to make a smooth mixture the texture of cake batter, then microwave until the roux is steaming hot and bubbling slightly around the edges, about 30 seconds.
• Scrape the roux into a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker and whisk in the stock and wine. Stir in the mushrooms, wild rice, celery, onion, carrot, chopped garlic, thyme and garlic powder. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and several generous grinds of black pepper. Cook on high until most of the rice grains are just slightly split open and the vegetables are tender, about 4 hours. (The soup can hold for 1 to 2 hours on the warm setting, but eventually the wild rice will overcook.)
• Turn the heat to warm. Put the sour cream in a small bowl and slowly whisk in a few spoonfuls of the hot soup until smooth, then stir the mixture into the soup. (This prevents the sour cream from separating.) If you'd like the soup to be thinner, whisk in warm broth or water to the desired consistency. Taste the soup and add more salt and pepper to taste.
• Divide the soup among bowls and top with chopped scallions or chives and dill. Reheat any leftovers on low until warm. (Boiling can cause the sour cream to break.)

• Stir together all ingredients except sour cream, flour, whipping cream and almonds in slow cooker.

• Combine sour cream and flour in bowl until smooth. Stir 1 cup broth from soup into sour cream mixture. Slowly add sour cream mixture to soup, stirring until smooth. Increase heat setting to High, if cooking on Low heat setting. Slowly stir in whipping cream just before serving. Cook, stirring occasionally, 6-10 minutes or until soup is thickened and creamy.

SLOW COOKER MUSHROOM WILD RICE SOUP

Steps:

• Turn your Crockpot™ on to warm. Add in the carrots, celery, onions, garlic and mushrooms.
• Add in the wild rice, dried oregano, fresh thyme and generous amount of sea salt and ground black pepper. Pour in the vegetable broth. Stir everything together until fully combined.
• Cover your Crockpot™ and set to high for 3 to 4 hours, or low for 6 to 8 hours.
• After your soup is finished cooking (or within the last 5 minutes), make your beurre manié. This is an ingenious way to thicken your soup without having to stop and make a difficult roux on the stovetop. Mix together the softened vegan butter and the flour together with a spoon. Mix for about 1 to 2 minutes until it comes together and is silky smooth, and the flour is fully mixed into the butter.
• Ladle some soup into your butter-flour mix to temper it, mix it together until smooth, then add the whole thing into the soup.
• Add in your coconut milk, then stir it all together. Let it all meld for at least 5 minutes in the hot soup.
• Taste and season with sea salt and black pepper again if needed.
• Turn your Crockpot™ to off or warm, serve alongside some bread and enjoy!
