Dishes that make wild rice shine – and put flavor
in the spotlight!
Wild rice is easy to prepare, and the texture can be varied to your liking – the longer it cooks, the softer and fluffier the grains become. Simmering in broth or wine gives wild rice a rich, full-bodied taste, and its flavor can be further enhanced by adding sliced vegetables, chopped nuts, or fruit pieces. Wild rice can be extended by combining it with brown or white rice.
