TIPS & TRICKS

If you can choose between using a stock pot or Dutch oven for this cream of mushroom wild rice soup recipe, opt for your stock pot. That’s because stock pots are better designed to handle quick soups, whereas Dutch ovens take a little longer to heat up and are more equipped for slower-cooked dishes.
