Wild Rice, Cooked

Wild Rice, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Wild rice is a nutrient-dense, gluten-free grain harvested from aquatic grasses native to North America, not a true rice. When cooked, its long, dark grains split open to reveal a chewy interior with a robust nutty flavor and earthy aroma. It contains nearly double the protein and fiber of white or brown rice, while providing essential minerals like manganese and phosphorus. This whole grain requires longer cooking times than conventional rice and is frequently used in stuffings, salads, and as a gourmet side dish.
