📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bring a medium (3- to 4-quart) saucepan with at least 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the wild rice and salt and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the saucepan with a lid and let the wild rice simmer gently for ⏱️ 45 minutes. Taste the rice for a chewy doneness and then strain away the excess liquid and return the rice to the warm pot. Place a tea towel over the pot and return the lid. Let the rice sit off the heat for ⏱️ 10 minutes to absorb any excess liquid. Fluff with a fork and let the rice cool while you prepare the other ingredients.
