Brown Basmati Rice Salad With Celery Cranberries And Walnuts Recipes

Steps:

• Bring the water or stock to a boil in a large saucepan, add salt to taste and the wild rice. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for 40 minutes, or until the rice is tender and splayed. Drain and toss in a large bowl with the remaining salad ingredients.
• Mix together the lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper. Whisk in the walnut oil, olive oil, and buttermilk or yogurt. Toss with the wild rice mixture. Taste and adjust seasonings, and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the brown basmati rice with cold water in a sieve.
• Put the drained basmati rice in a saucepan, poor plenty of boiling water over the rice, add the salt and cook the rice according to the package directions so they still have "a bit of a bite".
• Rinse the cooked rice with cold water in a sieve, drain it thoroughly then pour into a bowl.
• Add the chopped walnuts, cranberries and celery.
• Mix the ingredients for the vinaigrette and poor over the rice salad.

Steps:

• Start the rice cooker.
• Add 1 tablespoon butter melt and then add celery, garlic, onion, and saute till tender.
• Add sorrel lemon zest and rice stir to coat. Add enough water to top rice by and inch, (about 3 cups water).
• Cook till ricer beeps add peas toss and toss with additional butter.
• Season with salt and black pepper taste.

Steps:

• Rinse rice well. Bring to a boil 2 cups of water,salt, lemon juice & rind, bay leaf and parsley.
• Add rice. Return to a boil, then lower heat and cover.
• Simmer for 40 minutes or until all water has been absorbed.
• Turn heat off and let the rice sit , covered and undisturbed for 5 minutes.
• Add butter or oil and mix gently with a fork.(take bay leaf out).

Steps:

• Cook the rice using the package directions, omitting the salt and margarine.
• Meanwhile, heat a small skillet over medium-high heat.
• Dry-roast the walnuts for 4 minutes, or until beginning to lightly brown, stirring constantly.
• Transfer the walnuts to a sheet of aluminum foil or a plate to prevent overcooking.
• When the rice is tender, stir in the walnuts and the remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• First, put the rice in a strainer inside a bowl and wash it well. I usually change the water in the bowl at least 3 times. The water doesn't need to run completely clear, but it should not be very cloudy or brownish when the rice is washed. Leave the rice in the strainer to drip out for at least a few minutes.
• Put the rice and water in a saucepan with a tight-fitting lid and bring just to a boil over high heat. You don't want it to really boil, as soon as you start to see the bubbles, put on the lid and turn the heat down to very, very low (on my electric stove, I put it between "lo" and 1).
• Resist the temptation to take off the lid and check the rice too much. After about 25 minutes you can check it once and see how much water is left. I do this by sticking a wooden spatula down into the rice and pushing it to the side a little. If there is still water, push the rice back together, put the lid back on, and let it cook a few more minutes. Do not stir or disrupt the rice any more than you have to. It will take about 30 to 35 minutes for it to finish cooking.
• When all the water is absorbed, there will still be sort of a mushy layer at the bottom of the pot. Take the pot off the heat and leave undisturbed for at least 10 minutes. You can really leave it there as long as you like -- the moisture at the bottom will even out and the finished rice should be slightly al dente with all the grains separate.If there are a few clumps, just break them up with a fork or your fingers before serving or storing.
• If you plan to use the rice for fried rice, I would recommend refrigerating it for at least 6 hours, but overnight is better, so plan ahead!

Steps:

• Cook rice in a large saucepan of boiling water, following packet directions, until tender. Drain. Set aside to cool (see note).
• Combine rice, cranberries, celery and walnuts in a bowl.
• Place oil and vinegar in a screw-top jar. Season with salt and pepper. Secure lid. Shake to combine. Drizzle over salad. Toss to combine. Serve.
