Easy Wild Rice

Step 1

To a medium saucepan, add the wild rice, water and optional salt and butter.

Step 2

Bring to a boil on high heat, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce the heat to low.

Step 4

Simmer for 45 to 60 minutes or until the grains are al dente. (It's no problem if there's some water leftover in the pot.)*

Step 5

Drain any excess water remaining in the pot and fluff with a fork before serving.
