"Rice is the best, the most nutritive and unquestionably the most widespread staple in the world."
-Auguste Escoffier, 19th century French chef

The refrigerator light goes on...

Simple, simple, simple... When you add rice and salt to water and simmer and you don't stir the result is perfect.


 

Brown and Wild Rice

Servings: 2 | Serving size: 1/2 cup cooked rice

Cooking Time: 45 Minutes

This recipe can be multiplied by 2, 3, 4.

The cooked rice doesn't keep well.

2 1/4 cups water
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup long grain brown rice
1/4 cup black wild rice

In a medium sauce pan, heat the water and salt. When the water boils, stir in the brown and the wild rice.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, partially covered, for 30-35 minutes.

Do not boil away all of the liquid and do not stir the rice.

When a very small amount of liquid remains, remove the pan from the burner and let it stand, covered, for 5 minutes before serving.
