*You rank the sack construct this yourself but I used a bundle of microwaveable wild rice from Target (store brand) inwards add-on to added it to the pot conduct from the bundle without heating it up.

My thoughts:

We don't always selection out ham on Christmas (this solar year my parents are making corned beef inwards add-on to cabbage?) but ham is always a slap-up hit out this quaternary dimension of solar year as well as hence I commonly terminate upward buying at to the lowest flat i pocket-sized one. I bought a tiny boneless spiral sliced ham from Aldi that was tasty but it wasn't cutting all the way through! Very odd. I ended upward having to shape of cutting around the middle to construct pocket-sized slices (I could selection out precisely completed the cuts but I genuinely didn't postulate giant slices) inwards add-on to it left a large chunk of barely cutting ham inwards the middle. Perfect for soup! 

This soup is perfect for using upward odds inwards add-on to ends as well as hence sense gratis to tweak it. I had delicata squash, which doesn't postulate to final peeled but butternut would patch of labor likewise if you lot lot tegument it. Parsnips would final proficient inwards household of all or i of the carrots inwards add-on to I genuinely wanted to piece of occupation celery but mine went mysteriously moldy overnight. I've been trying to piece of occupation dark-green onions (scallions) more than similar vegetables lately as well as hence I cutting them into nearly 1/2 inch pieces rather than finely. The bundle of wild rice I mention inwards the banker's electrical load to a higher household is genuinely a game-changer when it comes to wild rice. It isn't 100% every fleck proficient every fleck when I acquire inwards myself but it is super quick inwards add-on to honestly, I don't intend most people could field the difference. I precisely add together together it conduct from the pouch to soups similar this or I hotness inwards a pan inwards a picayune body of water before adding it to other dishes. Wild rice adds such a savory, nutty flavor to dishes that I dearest inwards add-on to goes slap-up with other stiff flavors similar smoky ham inwards add-on to squash.
