WILD RICE CASSEROLE
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup wild rice, uncooked (*see note)
1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced thickly
1 cup minced onion
3 cups vegetable broth
3 cloves garlic, minced
DIRECTIONS
Rinse wild rice well. Combine wild rice, mushrooms, onion,
and garlic in a 3 quart casserole dish. Pour broth over it
all, cover, and bake at 350 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours.
NOTE: I couldn't find just wild rice, so I got Uncle Ben's long grain and wild rice mix and just used the rice (not the seasoning mix--there is just about 1 cup of rice in the box mix)---Peg

WILD RICE TIP
Surprise! Wild rice is not rice--it's a seed grain from an
aquatic grass not in the rice family. Add one cup (225 grams)
of rice to 1 quart (1 liter) of boiling water. It's terrific
as a stuffing or in a pilaf with sauteed vegetables.
COOKING TIP!
If you are in the habit of burning your rice, add a little
more water to the pot this time! Also, add extra water if
you prefer stickier rice. Less water makes for drier, fluffier
dishes. It all depends in how you plan to use it.
