Oven Wild Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan, add the onion, and cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until translucent. Add 5 cups of water, 2 teaspoons of salt, and the wild rice. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to very low, and simmer, covered, for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until the rice is tender. Drain well.
• Place the drained rice in a bowl, add the remaining tablespoon of butter, the scallions, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper. Taste for seasonings and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Wash the rice thoroughly. Pick through it and remove any foreign objects and discolored grains. Put the rice in a casserole dish and add the 3 cups of water. Cover the casserole dish and place on the center rack in the oven. Bake for one hour. Check the rice and add water if the rice is nearly dry but still uncooked. Fluff with a fork. Replace the cover and bake for another 1/2 hour. Check the rice. It should be tender but not mushy. The grains should be splitting open but not so soft that they are beginning to disintegrate. Remove the dish from the oven. Drain if necessary and fluff the wild rice with a fork before serving. Wild rice is not uniform from one bag to the next. Water amounts and cooking time will vary, so watch your wild rice carefully as it bakes.

Steps:

• You want to fix this the night before you need it.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Using a heavy kettle (with a lid), bring the water to a boil.
• When the water comes to a rolling boil, turn the heat off and add the rice.
• Stir so the wild rice is evenly distributed.
• Put the lid on the kettle and put into the oven.
• TURN OFF OVEN.

• If there is any liquid left in pan, drain off.
• Then add to your salads, soups or casseroles.
