Wild Rice


(Rice, Wild) Wild rice is a native American grain that is as old as recorded history. The harvesting of wild rice traditionally was done along streams and lakes where it was growing naturally. In more recent years, wild rice has been "naturally cultivated" to increase the yield. However, wild rice is still several times more expensive than any of the other types of rice we have encountered. At more than $3.00 (US) per pound, it remains a gourmet delicacy. Wild rice takes a little longer to cook than brown or basmati, but if cooked together with other types of rice and allowed to remain in the pot for another 15 minutes after cooking, it will be tender. The photo of the wild rice to the left when viewed at 800 X 600 is approximately the actual size. See the nutritional chart below.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live! (d-16)
