Ingredients

  • 2 cups of wild rice
  • A generous 6 cups of water
  • 4 cups of flavorful chicken broth
  • 1 cup of frozen sweet corn kernels
  • A delightful ½ cup of finely chopped green onions
  • 2 tablespoons of vibrant red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons of green bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley
  • 1 teaspoon of aromatic dried tarragon
  • 2 tablespoons of cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons of water

Step 1

Begin by preparing the rice in a saucepan filled with 6 cups of water until it is perfectly cooked and tender.

Step 2

Next, in a spacious saucepan or stockpot, bring together the broth, the cooked rice, sweet corn, fresh green onions, vibrant red and green bell peppers, fragrant parsley, and aromatic tarragon. Stir everything together thoroughly and let it simmer over medium heat until it reaches a gentle boil. Once boiling, lower the heat and allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes, ensuring that the corn is cooked just right.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, create a mixture of cornstarch and water. Incorporate this mixture into the soup and continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes. Remember to stir occasionally as the soup thickens. Once the desired consistency is achieved, your delicious soup is ready to be served and enjoyed!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your wild rice in an airtight container to preserve its nutty flavor and texture.
  2. 2. Store your aromatic herbs - like thyme and bay leaves - in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
  3. 3. Arrange your colorful vegetables in the fridge, with the more delicate ones on top to avoid crushing.
