Instructions

  1. If you haven't pre-cooked your wild rice, simmer it in plenty of water with a healthy pinch of salt added until it's tender. This can vary from 20 minutes with true wild rice, to almost an hour with the hard, black, cultivated stuff. Drain and set aside.
  2. Pour the milk and cream into a pot and add the wild rice. Add more milk if you want to. It should not be totally submerged in it -- you want the dairy to be a sort of sauce for the rice. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer.
  3. Let this cook 5 minutes or so, then serve. If you want, add a little butter or a splash of more cream.

Notes

  • If you want to, you can add more (or less) fruit, nuts or sweetener to suit your taste.
