I doubled the recipe, omitted the wild rice, and added extra barley. It went over okay with the guys, but next time I would let the soup cool a little more before adding sour cream. I also used whole wheat flour, and would not do so next time--the creamy color of the soup was too compromised, and made it look less appealing, even though the taste was still good.
