That comma says 2 cups of cooked rice, not 2 cups of raw rice... which
of course is dumb since it's exceedingly rare to add cooked rice to a
home made soup... there's not nearly enough liquid in that recipe to
call it a soup anyway, more a pilaf. I'd question that 1/2 cup of
flour, that's enough to make library paste pudding, not soup.
