Northern Latitude Foods | Coeur d’Alene Wild Rice: It’s soup weather and adding wild rice to any soup just makes it healthier and tastier! Did you know that Wild Rice is one of the highest protein grains around? Whether you are making your favorite wild rice and mushroom soup, or any seasonal squash soup, add in a cup or two of cooked wild rice to give it some added texture, flavor, vitamins, and protein. Did you know that wild rice is full of flavonoids? Flavonoids are anti-inflammatory. Wild rice is considered a good anti-inflammatory food, full of vitamin B’s, magnesium, manganese, and fiber. It is also a low glycemic food that is allowed on diabetic diets. So enjoy it as a side or a flavorful addition to any meal. We will be at the Harvest Fest this week handing out candy to trick or treaters and selling our healthy goods. Please stop by and say “Hello”. We always enjoy seeing you. Happy Halloween 🎃 Check out the Wild Rice and Tomato Bisque Soup Recipe at the bottom of this post!

Hard Crack Toffee: Hard Crack will be bringing our customer-favorite toffee flavors. Please stop by to enjoy a sample—you’ll definitely want to take some home for your treat! New flavors coming soon to the November Cabin Fever Market: Cinnamon Sugar and Dark Chocolate Andes Mint.

Creamy Wild Rice Soup

Recipe by Northern Latitude Foods

Instructions

1. Bring the stock, onion, celery, carrot, peppercorns, thyme, parsley, and bay leaf to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, cook the wild rice in 2 cups of water until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and set aside.
3. Strain the stock into a separate container. You can keep the veggies to add back in or discard.
4. In the pot over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Cook for a couple minutes stirring constantly – do not brown!
5. Add the stock back to the pot and whisk with the butter/flour mixture until slightly thickened. Add the rice and veggies, if using, and simmer for 20 minutes.
6. Stir in the cream and greens. Heat through, but do not boil. Enjoy!
