Description

Freshly harvested and California-grown with a rich, nutty flavor.

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.
