PERFECT WILD RICE

1. Rinse all Wild Rice thoroughly. This may be done by placing measured Wild Rice in sauce pan, filling pan with water, swirling Wild Rice around and pouring off the water. The Wild Rice will stay in the bottom of the pan. Repeat 2-3 times.

2. Add measured water or broth -- use 3 cups liquid to 1 cup dry Wild Rice.

3. Boil gently in covered pan approximately 30 minutes until almost all liquid is absorbed. Texture and consistancy is a matter of personal preference. We prefer a grain that has split open but is still chewy.

DO NOT OVERCOOK to avoid mushiness and loss of nutrients.

TO MICROWAVE WILD RICE:

1. Place 1 cup Wild Rice in a 3 quart covered casserole. Add 4 cups water and 1 tsp. salt. Microwave on high for 6 minutes, then reduce to low for 30 minutes. Leave Wild Rice undisturbed in oven for another 10-15 minutes.

STORAGE

Cooked Wild Rice can be refrigerated for a week or frozen for several weeks without loss of flavor.
