We used to live in Southeast Idaho, near the head waters of the Portneuf River. It was a stopping spot for all kinds of very cool birds, and was a nesting area for Sandhills...every summer we'd see the happy families in the fields and our last name was Crane, to boot!
Aren't they cool birds? That eight mile hike...I'm jellin, honey. It's been many months since my hiking days ... maybe in the summertime! woo hoo!

Hi Heidi!
The barley mushroom soup recipe I used is from the MWL book. It might be the same recipe as the one you use. I love it. I've made it several times.
Those big birds are a treat to see. It was a 2 hour drive for us but it was worth it.

Probably the same recipe in both MWL and Starch Solution. When I was done, I thought it looked so colorless, even though it tasted terrific. So I threw a cup of frozen spinach in the pot and that added color. SO delicious! But I also tweaked the seasonings just a bit, since the 1/8 tsp of wasabi powder didn't cut it...instead, a full tsp of regular horseradish made it subtly tangy And miso instead of soy sauce.
Mmm, now I want to go home and have me a bowl of it!

I am curious about the Wild Spinach Rice; it sounds good. Where can I find the recipe? Thanks, Marsha
