Wild Rice Stuffing/Side Dish

"I have been using this recipe for years now. I cannot recall where the recipe comes from, maybe a Joy of Cooking cookbook? I've searched the internet and can't seem to find this recipe anymore. I am posting it here for safe keeping. I usually make this for a holiday side dish and can easily be made vegan by using vegan butter. Cooking time includes time to cook the rice. The rice can be made ahead of time. Once you have cooked wild rice, the dish comes together very quickly."

directions

  • Cook wild rice according to package directions. This is usually cooked 1 part rice to 4 parts water and simmered for about 45 minutes. Once cooked, drain rice and set aside. (This can be made ahead of time).
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Add onion and cook until fragrant.
  • Drain your raisins and add to the onions, along with the pistachios and wild rice. Cook for 10 minutes or until everything is nicely warmed and coated.
  • Taste and add additional butter or salt to taste. I find that the flavors of this dish are very subtle, and once rested, the flavors develop even more. This can easily be reheated.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Ever since I can remember I've enjoyed cooking. I would say that I am adventurous in the kitchen and like to try new dishes and ingredients. I am lucky to live in an area that promotes local farmers and local foods. One of my favorite seasons is summer because of all the farmers markets and u-pick farms. As my name suggests, I am a junkie to this site, it's been a great way to try new recipes and learn new things about cooking. <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
