Try the Wild Rice...

For those of you who haven't tried this hearty rice, now is a good time! Follow cooking instructions below. Sautee some onion, mushroom and garlic in a separate saucepan with olive oil. When rice is finished mix in together! Yum yum. Serve with a baked potato - you WILL be stuffed.

Cooking Wild Rice Using the Stovetop Method

Wash 1 cup uncooked wild rice thoroughly. Add to 3 cups boiling water, salted to taste, in a heavy saucepan. Return water to boil and stir. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, 50-60 minutes or just until kernals puff open. Uncover and fluff with table fork. Simmer five additional minutes. Drain any excess liquid. For chewier texture cook less time. Yield: 3-4 cups of cooked wild rice.
