Thick and Warm perfect for the cottage sunroom in the winter, 5 stars.
A bit smaller than I imagined, a bit larger than a quail egg. Works nicely though!
Wild rice is not a true "rice" but an aquatic seed. True wild rice is hand-threshed and most famously produced in Minnesota and Canada. This cultivated "wild" rice is produced by a family farm in Northern California.
Native to the Americas, wild rice has too long been stuck on the holiday table or teamed with salmon and little else. Don't let odd marketing fool you; wild rice makes a great everyday meal.
It has a chewy texture and distinct nutty flavor. It goes with beans or sauteed vegetables and while it may take awhile to cook (about an hour), it's easy and the results are delicious.
