INSTRUCTIONS
Saute the mushroom, leeks and kale in 4 Tbsp. butter ( 5 minutes). Add
garlic and wild rice. Saute until you start to smell the garlic cooking.
Add the flour, thoroughly stirring it into the mushroom mixture. This
combination of butter and flour is called a roux (roo). The mixture will
become thick and lumpy. Don't be alarmed. Just keep stirring and cooking to
remove the starchy taste from the flour. This will take about 3 minutes.
Slowly add the chicken stock and half-and-half. Use a whip to blend the
liquids and ensure a smooth, creamy texture. As it heats, the roux thickens
the soup. When the soup is smooth and hot, add the chives and parsley.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. For an even richer soup, stir in 1
Tbsp. of butter.
