Wild Rice with Dried Fruit
Ingredients:
2 cups long-grain wild rice
6 cups water
1/2 cup dried currents
1/2 cup dried cherries or cranberries
1/2 cup toasted sunflower seeds
1/2 cup roasted hickory nuts chopped
1/2 cup water
salt to taste
Preparation:
Wild rice is expensive but has a wonderful crunchy texture and nutty flavor. If you wish, cook 1 cup of wild rice and 1 cup of brown rice separately, then combine them with the fruit and seeds.
Cook wild rice according to package directions, or until ends break open like flowers, about 1 hour; drain. Add wild rice with cherries and pecans. Add 1/2 cup water and salt. Cover pan; cook mixture over low heat or in
300-degree oven 15 minutes. Stir before serving. Yield: serves 8.
