facebook <\/a> twitter <\/a> stumbleupon <\/a> email <\/a> According to Wikipedia<\/a>, wild rice is a wildflower called fritillaria camschatcensis and is\u00a0sometimes called “Indian rice”,\u00a0“wild rice”. “Canada rice” and “water oats”.\u00a0\u00a0Here in North America we eat wild rice as a delicacy. We enjoy it in soups, pilafs, casseroles and in many other types of recipes.<\/p>\n I like to pre-cook my wild rice and freeze it for later use. That way I’m ready to make\u00a0a fast recipe that typically would take a lot\u00a0longer to make.<\/p>\n Let me show you how to make Wild Rice<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n In\u00a0a large pot or\u00a0bowl filled with water, rinse the wild rice thoroughly. Stir the rice, and\u00a0then use a spoon to remove any grass or debris that floats to the top. This wild rice looked pretty good. I didn’t have anything to remove.<\/p>\n Bring water (or broth) and a dash of salt\u00a0to a full boil in a large saucepan.<\/p>\n The liquid to wild rice ratio is 4 parts liquid to 1 part uncooked\u00a0wild rice. You drain the excess water, unlike traditional rice. I used 2 cups uncooked wild rice and 8 cups water.<\/p>\n After it comes to a full rolling boil, add the pre-rinsed wild rice.<\/p>\n Add 1\/8 – 1\/4 teaspoon kosher salt and stir to combine.\u00a0 Bring the rice and liquid to a boil again (that should happen within about 3 minutes or so), then lower the heat to a low simmer.<\/p>\n Place the lid on the saucepan, and cook the rice until it begins to get puffy and begins to split. This will take about\u00a045-minutes to one hour. After 45-minutes have passed, taste to see what the texture is. If it’s\u00a0firmer than you like, cook it for a few more minutes.\u00a0 <\/p>\n Remove the cover, and fluff the wild rice with a fork. Simmer the mixture — with the cover off — for an additional five minutes.<\/p>\n Pour the rice into a colander to drain excess liquid.<\/p>\n Refrigerate and use rice within 2 days or place in a zip-top freezer bag to store in freezer for up to a few months.<\/p>\n CLICK HERE<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>for some of my\u00a0recipes that use wild rice.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pin It facebook twitter stumbleupon email According to Wikipedia, wild rice is a wildflower called fritillaria camschatcensis and is\u00a0sometimes called “Indian rice”,\u00a0“wild rice”. “Canada rice” and “water oats”.\u00a0\u00a0Here in North America we eat wild rice as a delicacy.
