SEASONED WILD RICE (COOKED IN A RICE COOKER)



Seasoned Wild Rice (Cooked in a Rice Cooker) image

I love wild rice. It has such wonderful nutty flavor. I made this in my rice cooker and it came out perfect. The rice cooker cook book suggested 6 cups of liquid, but I only added 5 and I like the texture with less.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8-10 cups, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups wild rice
5 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon spike gourmet natural seasoning

Steps:

  • Put the rice, chicken broth, coconut oil and Spike into the rice cooker. Give it a good stir.
  • Turn on the rice cooker and let it cook the rice. I used coconut oil to prevent the rice from bubbling over. It works very well and I like that coconut oil doesn't go rancid like other oils when heated on a high temperature.
  • When the rice is finished, lift the lid and fluff it up. Put the lid back on and let it sit for another 5-10 minutes before serving. This goes really good with a little Romano cheese on top.
  • Bon Appetit!

Tips:

  • Proper Rice Selection: For optimal taste and texture, utilize short or medium-grain rice varieties like Arborio or Calrose. If unavailable, you may substitute long-grain rice.
  • Fresh Berries: Employ a combination of berries for a vibrant medley of flavors. Select plump, ripe berries free from bruises or blemishes for the most appetizing results.
  • Liquid Adjustments: For firmer rice, employ less liquid, and vice versa for softer grains. Experiment with different proportions to achieve your ideal consistency.
  • Toasting Rice (Optional): To intensify the nutty flavor of the rice, opt to toast it prior to cooking. Simply stir the rice in hot oil until it turns golden brown, enhancing its overall taste.
  • Seasoning: Don't be afraid to customize the dish to your liking with additional herbs, spices, or zesty lemon juice for a refreshing tang.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Rice Cooker: To prevent mushy rice, avoid overfilling the rice cooker. Adhere to the recommended rice-to-liquid ratio and refrain from cramming excessive ingredients.
  • Cook Time Variations: Cooking time may vary depending on your rice variety, cooker type, and the amount of liquid utilized. Keep an eye on your rice to determine when it reaches the desired doneness.
  • Fluff Before Serving: Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains, ensuring a light and airy texture.
